So 100 names written on a piece of paper prove that the Shiite militias were oppressing Sunni civilians? 1. Are those names real? 2. Were Shiites responsible?

So 100 names written on a piece of paper prove that the Shiite militias were oppressing Sunni civilians?
1. Are those names real?
2. Were Shiites responsible?[0]
3. Were they civilians?
4. Have they been abused?
5. Have they been released?
Linking to an allegation from early April as evidence of oppression, when the alleged group themselves deny it, isn't evidence. Feel free to link to any formal complaints or follow up articles. It's been six weeks since that article and eight weeks since the incident, so I'm sure there is a follow up by now if anything came from it.
If it did happen as described, and the missing were abused or murdered, then I hope the people responsible are punished. Until then, all we have are unsubstantiated allegations which don't appear to have been followed up.
