New Delhi, Nov 13 (PTI): Expressing concern over the incidents of looting and other crimes in Kabul, UN High Commissioner for Human Rights (UNHCHR) Mary Robinson today warned the situation could get worse with a "very bad" track record of human rights violation of some leaders of Northern Alliance.

"There have already been some reports of looting of humanitarian aid and there is a fear that the situation in Kabul could turn worse. That would be tragic for the entire population in the area", Robinson, who met a select group of journalists here, said.

She said the human rights track record of some of the Alliance leaders was "very bad" and there was all possibility of such leaders playing a key role in the future government in Afghanistan.

Let the civilian population, who have a long history of being the sufferers of changing hands of the territory between the forces in Afghanistan, have a primary say in their future and formation of the government, she said adding UNHCHR was monitoring very closely whether their interests were taken care of.

Stressing that the military strategy to counter terrorism should be based on two guiding principles of necessity and proportion of the action to avoid injuries to innocents, Robinson, however, said whether the same was being followed by US was a matter to be decided by the UN Security Council.
