Pakistan says it plans to execute around 500 militants in coming weeks.

The government has lifted a moratorium on the death penalty in terror cases following a Taliban school massacre which killed 149 people including 133 children.

Six militants have been hanged since Friday amid rising public anger over the slaughter in the northwestern city of Peshawar.
