Conferences They have been denied the enjoyment of a whole range of rights - economic, social, civil and political rights and often deprivation in one of these areas has entailed discrimination in Leadership Summit another. Women who have been denied social rights including the right to education are also Local Events often denied the right to decide in matters relating to their marriage and divorce, are more easily abused in the family and community and are more likely to be deprived of the right to Nationwide Events legal redress. Often abuses are compounded; poor girls and women are trafficked and subject to forced marriage, forced prostitution or exploitative work situations such as bonded labour. In all of these situations they are likely to be mentally, physically and sexually abused, again without having the wherewithal to obtain justice.(1) Since publishing its 1999 report, Pakistan: Violence against women in the name of honour(2), Amnesty International has found that while few positive changes have taken place in the area of women's rights, the state in Pakistan still by and large fails to provide adequate protection for women against abuses in the custody of the state and in the family and the community. In fact, the number of victims of violence appears to rise.

This time military stepped in as an institution due to the wrong deeds of politicians. Pervaiz Musharraf declared himself Chief Executive of the state and tried to fulfill his own agenda. He amended the anti terrorism act to punish Nawaz Sharif. Basic pillar of federalism the judiciary remained under fire throughout his regime and Chief Justice of Pakistan was deposed from the office. Political activities and parties were banned. Powers were centralized in the name of devolution of powers. Constitution was abandoned and LFO was introduced to provide victory to the King’s party in an engineered elections. Musharraf jumped into war against terrorism and the whole country was facing bomb blasts and attacks of militants on official institutions of the state.

Summary • FATA—Pakistan’s Federally Administered Tribal Areas—is widely considered one of the most volatile regions in the world. • Pakistan inherited FATA’s “special status” from the British colonial empire in 1947, and the region is still ruled under the British-era Frontier Crimes Regulations, which differs significantly from the legal system that applies to the rest of the country. • In the wake of 9/11, FATA became a haven for militants of all hues and thus of major © 2018 by the United States Institute of Peace.

  • Legal and Theoretical Foundation of the Qisas and Diyat Law in Pakistan
    CHAPTER TWO LEGAL AND THEORETICAL FOUNDATION OF THE QISAS AND DIYAT LAW IN PAKISTAN Introduction Intriguingly, the foundation of the new law of murder and culpable homicide, allegedly based on the Sharia principles of qisas and diyat, was not laid in the Legislative Assembly of Pakistan. Instead, from 1980 to 1989 the law was pondered over, discussed, dissented, weighed and finally approved by judges of the Shariat courts, on whose insistence it was ordained by the State in 1990. It was only enacted by the Parlia- ment in 1997.1 The Islamic law of murder and homicide, i.e., the law of qisas and diyat, was initially discussed in the Shariat Bench of the Peshawar High Court in the case of Gul Hassan Khan v. the Govern- ment of Pakistan.2 This was the first case wherein the court held that the penalties prescribed in chapter XVI of the Pakistan Penal Code (henceforth ‘PPC’) with respect to offences against the human body (in particular, under section 302 of the code) are un-Islamic inasmuch as such offences were not made excusable by pardon or on the payment of ‘diyat’; a non-pubert can be subjected to ‘qisas’.3 The Islamic and secular versions of the two laws of murder and homicide were reviewed by the Federal Shariat Court (henceforth FSC) of Pakistan in the case of Mohammad Riaz etc. v. The Federal Govern- ment of Pakistan.4 In a majority judgment, the Full Bench reiterated the decision rendered in Gul Hassan’s case and further explicated the reasons as to why the law contained in the PPC pertaining to homicide, murder and bodily injuries was against the injunctions of Islam.

Respondent(s)(Mian Muhammad Nawaz Sharif (Prime Minister of Pakistan) and Mazhar Alam Khan Miankhel, Chief Justice, Peshawar High Court, Peshawar)..By Mr. Abdul Latif Yousafzai, Advocte-Geheral, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, and Barrister Waqar Ahmed Khan, Friend of the Court. YAHYA AFRIDI,J.- Mr. Shahid Orakzai has, through the instant Cr.Misc.(COC) No.313/2014, moved this Court seeking to convict Muhammad Nawaz Sharif, the Prime Minister of Islamic Republic of Pakistan and Mr.Justice Mazhar Alam Khan Miankhel, the Chief Justice, Peshawar High Court, Peshawar, for contempt of Court. 2.

He is not even included in the definition of legal heirs given at section 305 Cr.P.C. In presence of the widow and issues of the deceased. Therefore, the application so moved by him cannot be considered as being part and parcel of the judicial record.

Introduction On 22 June 2002, a tribal council of elders ‘sentenced’ Mukhtaran Bibi, a 30-year-old woman of the Gujjar tribe in village Meerwala, district Muzaffargarh, Punjab province, to being gang raped in ‘punishment’ for her younger brother’s alleged ‘illicit affair’ with a girl from another tribe, the Mastoi, considered higher in the tribal hierarchy. Following a public outcry, the Governor of Punjab, Lieutenant General (retrd.) Khalid Maqbool Ahmed, set up an official enquiry which confirmed assertions made earlier by Mukhtaran Bibi: that the story of the ‘illicit affair’ was itself concocted to cover up another earlier sexual abuse. Three men of the Mastoi tribe were found to have sodomized Shakoor, Mukhtaran Bibi’s 12-year-old brother. When Shakoor threatened to tell his family about the rape - which a later medical examination confirmed - the tribesmen handed him over to the local police station where at least some police officers apparently knew about the antecedents but detained the boy.

    Pakistan Page 1 of 45 Pakistan Country Reports on Human Rights Practices - 2001 Released by the Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor March 4, 2002 In October 1999, the elected civilian Government of former Prime Minister Mian Nawaz Sharif was overthrown in a bloodless coup led by Army Chief of Staff General Pervez Musharraf. In consultation with senior military commanders, General Musharraf designated himself Chief Executive, and suspended the Constitution, the Parliament, and the national and provincial assemblies. The office of the President, which mainly is ceremonial, was retained. In 1999 General Musharraf appointed an advisory National Security Council, which included military and civilian advisers, a civilian cabinet, and new governors to all four provinces. The government bureaucracy continued to function; however, at all levels the functioning of the Government after the coup was "monitored" by military commanders. On June 20, General Musharraf was sworn in as the country's President, after the Provisional Constitutional Order (PCO) was amended (the PCO functions in place of the country's suspended Constitution). In 2000 the Supreme Court ruled that the Musharraf Government was constitutional and imposed a 3-year deadline--starting from October 12, 1999--to complete a transition to democratic, civilian rule. Between December 31, 2000, and August 2, local elections were held in five phases on a nonparty basis; on August 14, the Government announced that elections on the national and provincial level are scheduled to take place between October 1 and 11, 2002. The Government subsequently confirmed that political parties are to be permitted to participate. However, President Musharraf announced on several occasions that he intends to remain in office after the elections are held.
