  • Pakistan's Sindh Province
    MEMORANDUM October 29, 2015 To: Hon. Brad Sherman Attention: Kinsey Kiriakos From: K. Alan Kronstadt, Specialist in South Asian Affairs, x7-5415 Foreign Affairs, Defense, and Trade Division Subject: Pakistan’s Sindh Province This memorandum responds to your request for information on Pakistan’s Sindh province, including specific discussion of its Thatta and Badin districts. Content may appear in other CRS products. Please contact me if you need further assistance. Overview1 Sindh is one of Pakistan’s four provinces, accounting for roughly one-quarter of the country’s population in less than 18% of its land area. Its provincial capital, Karachi, is among the world’s largest megacities, and also the site of significant sectarian, ethnic, and political violence. Covering more than 54,000 square miles of southeastern Pakistan (about the size of Florida, see Figure 1), Sindh stretches from the Jacobabad district in the north to the vast Indus River delta wetlands abutting the Arabian Sea and India in the south, and from the thinly-populated Dadu district in the west to the Thar Desert and a militarized border with India to the east (see Figure 2). One-third of Pakistan’s 650-mile Arabian Sea coastline is in Sindh. The vast majority of Sindh’s residents live at or near the final few hundred miles of the Indus’s course. Official government population statistics continue to be based on the most recent national census in 1998, which put Sindh’s population at 30.4 million out of Pakistan’s then-total 132 million, with 52% living in rural areas.

  • £PAKISTAN @Reports of Torture and Death in Police Custody
    £PAKISTAN @Reports of torture and death in police custody Introduction Torture and deaths in police custody allegedly due to torture or deliberate shooting in Pakistan have been issues of long-standing concern to Amnesty International. The organization has raised with successive governments reported cases of torture of criminal suspects and political prisoners by police, army and prison officers. During the most recent period of martial law (1977-1985), there were frequent reports of the systematic torture of political prisoners in military detention centres, where prisoners were frequently held incommunicado and tortured during interrogation. The torture of criminal and political suspects in police custody has also been common. Under the Code of Criminal Procedure (CCP) of 1898, the Pakistan police have wide powers to arrest and detain criminal suspects. For example, under Section 54 of the CCP, "any person who has been concerned in any cognizable offence or against whom a reasonable complaint has been made or credible information has been received, or a reasonable suspicion exists of his having been so concerned" can be arrested without a warrant. Section 167 (1) specifies that suspects have to be brought before a magistrate within 24 hours of their arrest. At that stage, under Section 167 (2), remand in police custody can be obtained from the magistrate for up to 15 days. It is during this period, when suspects are held in police custody, that most reported incidents of torture and ill-treatment take place. This document concentrates on reports of torture allegedly committed by police since 1989, although some cases also involve jail staff or army personnel.
