  • Socio-Cultural Determinants of Female Criminality in Pakistan: a Study of Punjab
    Pakistan Journal of Social Sciences (PJSS) Vol. 35, No. 2 (2015), pp. 875-890 Socio-Cultural Determinants of Female Criminality in Pakistan: A Study of Punjab Imtiaz Ahmad Warraich Assistant Professor, Department of Sociology, Bahauddin Zakariya University, Multan, Pakistan. [email protected] Muhammad Farooq, PhD Professor, Department of Pakistan Studies, Bahauddin Zakariya University, Multan, Pakistan. [email protected] Abstract The current study focused on social and cultural patterns that induce and force females to indulge in criminal behavior. It also focused on those circumstances which formulate such situations in which female spoils into criminal behavior for her certain drives. Thus, formulating the core assumptive grounds, the present study focused on socio-cultural determinants of female criminality in Punjab, Pakistan. The researcher used semi structured interview schedule for data collection from 291 respondents selected through systematic random sampling out of total 875 respondents. The statistical analysis of the present study revealed that the most important and effective determinants of female criminality were social disputes, revenge, social deprivation, peer group and family culture. The multivariate canonical correlation explicitly showed that socio-cultural determinants predicted the likelihood of the occurrence of crime in females if they encounter the same socio- cultural circumstances. It was also concluded that the influence of family and peers were the major contributing factors to produce or demote female criminality in Pakistan, particularly in Punjab. Keywords: Criminality, Socio-Cultural determinants, behavior, family, peer group I. Introduction Crime has been measured as unlawful act associated with males because of their dominant nature almost in all subjects of every society (White, Haines, & Asquith, 2012).

    NCHR NEWSLETTER AUGUST-DECEMBER 2017 National Commission for Human Rights 5th Floor Evacuee Trust Complex, Agha Khan Road, Islamabad NATIONAL COMMISSION FOR HUMAN RIGHTS Phone: 051-9216777, Fax: 051-9216772 PAKISTAN E-mail: [email protected], Website: nchr.org.pk AGUST-DECEMBER 2017 NEWSLETTER Chairman’s Message Pakistan is passing through a tumultuous time. In an unprecedented stage in our history we are plagued by a plethora of problems shrouding our future in an ominous cloud. Child abuse is rampant. Hate speech and extremism are festering, leading to forced conversions of minority communities in Tharparkar, Kalash, among others, and an increase in sectarian killings of Hazara Shias in Balochistan, and other religious minorities all over the country. One of the biggest challenges that Pakistan faces is enforced disappearances aimed at shutting down dissent or gaining personal leverage, with multiple accusations levied against state agencies or foreign interference. Synchronously to due process being overlooked, torture is being ignored. There exists no definition of torture in our penal code, a strict rebuke to the international treaties ratified by us. Pakistan has become a mini-killing field; it appears altruism is a victim. Though this may paint a bleak picture, we must remember that the context is unique in Pakistan’s 70 years. Civil society is more empowered than ever and fighting to hold accountable the institutions established to protect them, and the government is taking some measures to tackle these problems, with the establishment of the NCHR being one such step. NCHR is mandated to look into human rights issues faced by Pakistani citizens at home and abroad and to resolve them.

Mainstreaming them is one of the crucial objectives to be achieved through education. Provision of equitable educational opportunities, facilities and training to juveniles’ mental, moral, social and psychological development within borstal institutions has significant role in making them productive citizens for Pakistan’s society. The study rationalized that equity is a basic instrument to analyse educational facility for juveniles’ rehabilitation and mainstreaming. The study’s focus was to explore and analyse educational opportunities apropos of equity for juveniles in borstal institutes.Purposive sampling was used for conducting in-depth interviews from 26 juveniles, which was the total strength out of104 prisoned juveniles in the borstal institute, Faisalabad. The qualitative analysis revealed that although teaching-learning process had been taking place for juveniles but the system lacked in provision of equitable educational opportunities in the institute. Further, the data showed that teachers, reading materials, stationeries, laboratories and furniture, which are essential elements in carrying out teaching-learning process, were largely missing in the borstal institute and juveniles jail.
