I. INTRODUCTION Historically, the Fourth Amendment to the United States Con- stitution is a product of the abuses which British officials visited on the American colonists by means of general warrants and writs of assistance.’ To combat these abuses, the drafters of the Con- stitution adopted the fourth amendment which prohibits unrea- sonable searches and seizures and provides that warrants to search are valid only if there is probable cause for their issuance and they specifically describe the place to be searched and the things to be seized.‘ Recognizing the historical bases for the amendment, the Su- preme Court, as early as 1886, noted that it was intended to pro- tect against indiscriminate, governmental invasions “of the sanc- tity of a man’s home and the privacies of life.” But the Court at * This article is adapted from the author’s thesis prepared as a member of the 21st Advanced Class, The Judge Advocate General’s School, U.S. Army, Charlottesville, Virginia.

United States, 116 U.S. 616, 650 (1886). 1 61 MILITARY LAW REVIEW’ first emphasized the protection of the “home” concept rather than ‘(privacy.” It tied protection to property law concepts, analy- zing the validity of searches in terms of constitutionally protected geographic areas and granting more protection to certain places than to ~thers.~ In the modern, electronic age, when individuals have become more susceptible to governmental surveillance, the Supreme Court has steadily moved to liberate the fourth amendment from artifi- cial property law concepts.: In recent years the Court has eni- phasized the concLpt of a right of personal privacy. In C;/iswold v. Co?znecticut,‘ Mr. Justice Douglas, speaking for five members of the Court, described the various guarantees of the Bill of Rights as creating “zones of privacy.” He specifically recognized that the role of the fourth amendment is to insure the “right of the people to be secure in their persons, homes, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures.” Mr. Justice Stewart in Katz v. United States reiterated this approach when he pointed out that “the Fourth Amendment protects people, not places.” ’ A. THE ROLE OF THE SEARCH TYARRA-YT Since the first clause of the fourth amendment proscribes un- reasonable searches, reasonableness is the general standard which both civilian and military courts use when examining a search.’” Such a standard, of course, must ordinarily be applied on an ad hoc basis.I1 However, the courts are in agreement that any gen- eral or exploratory search so endangers the right of privacy that it could never be reasonable.I? 4 Warden v.

Hillan, 26 C.M.R. 771 (NBR 1958j . 2 SPECIFICITY It is the role of the search warrant to prevent the general or exploratory search ; and while some warrantless searches have been found to be reasonable under the first clause of the fourth amendment,I3 searches under the authority of warrants must con- form to the requirements of the amendment's second clause. Such warrants must be issued only upon probable cause and must specifically describe the place to be searched and the things to be seized.14 The Supreme Court of the United States has always considered the use of a search warrant to be the best means of limiting an intrusion into an individual's privacy.15 More recently the United States Court of Military Appeals has also expressed its opinion that written authorizations to search are very desirable,l6 even though written warrants are not required under the Uniform Code of Military Justice.17 The court has clearly stated that it would like to see written search authorization, and there is a possibility that it might make such authorizations mandatory at some time in the future.lX In partial response to the Court of Military Appeals' expressed preference for written authorizations to search, the Department of Army recently promulgated Chapter 14 to Army Regulation 27-10. This chapter authorizes the issuance of written search warrants by military judges.I9 l3 Pee Chime1 v. California, 395 U.S. 752 (1969) ; Chambers v. Maroney, 399 U.S. 42 (1970) ; Warden v.

This article will not consider whether a warrant is a prerequisite to a search wherever practicable or whether it is only one of a number of factors to be considered in judging the reasonableness of a given search.

Martinez, 16 U.S.C.M.A. 40, 36 C.M.R. 196 (1966) where the court indicated a written authorization would spell out the facts upon which a search authorization was based and would also enumerate the article to be seized.

  • Zarb-E-Azb and the State of Security in Pakistan
    Prof. Dr. Umbreen Javaid1 Zarb-e-Azb and the State of Security in Pakistan Abstract The state of internal security in Pakistan emerged as a challenge to the state-writ due to the societal fragmentation and rise in extremism and terrorism. Incidents of terrorism linked to TTP developed as the major internal security threat in Pakistan. The failure of PML - (N)’s government in bringing the TTP to the dialogue table coupled with a terrifying rise in number of terror attacks on security personal and soft targets led to the hard stance culminating in a comprehensive joint military operation ‘Zarb-e-Azb’ in North Waziristan (FATA) against TTP’s hideouts and their foreign supporters. The paper will focus on the internal security dynamics of Pakistan in post 9/11scanario and the circumstances that led to the massive, large scale military chase in the history of Pakistan [Zarb-e-Azb] to curtail terrorism and to root out extremism. Keywords Internal Security, Operation Zarb-e-Azb, Pakistan, extremism, FATA, terror Introduction Security is a dependent concept, it is complex and seamless in nature, it needs to be defined under specific circumstances and precise condition or it is meaningless unless it is defined under relational mode with a major concept [as power and peace]. As per Kraus & Williams, “security is a derivative concept; it is meaningless in itself. To have any meaning, security necessarily presupposes something to be secured; as a realm of study it cannot be self-referential” (1997: ix). Realist considers security as the sub-derivative of power or some of the theorists consider it parallel to power, while liberalists believe that security is the essential element for retaining peace (Javaid & Kamal, 2015: 116-117).

This article may be reproduced in whole or in part without permission. If it is reproduced, the Journal of Indo-Pacific Affairs requests a courtesy line. ith a shift in the balance of power in the Far East, as well as multiple chal- Wlenges in the wider international security environment, several nations in the Indo-Pacific region have undergone significant changes in their defense pos- tures. This is particularly the case with India, which has gone from a regional, largely Pakistan-focused, perspective to one involving global influence and power projection. This has presented ramifications for all the Indian armed services, but especially the Indian Air Force (IAF). Over the last decade, the IAF has been trans- forming itself from a principally army-support instrument to a broad spectrum air force, and this prompted a radical revision of Indian aipower doctrine in 2012. It is akin to Western airpower thought, but much of the latest doctrine is indigenous and demonstrates some unique conceptual work, not least in the way maritime air- power is used to protect Indian territories in the Indian Ocean and safeguard sea lines of communication. Because of this, it is starting to have traction in Anglo- American defense circles.1 The current Indian emphases on strategic reach and con- ventional deterrence have been prompted by other events as well, not least the 1999 Kargil conflict between India and Pakistan, which demonstrated that India lacked a balanced defense apparatus.

    ::: Pakistan Armed Forces Medical Journal ::: Issue Year : 2011, Issue Number : 4, Issue Month : December Written By : Habib Ullah Khan, Ishfaq Ahmad, Asim Ishfaq Belongs To : Combined Military Hospital Rawalpindi FREQUENCY OF HYDROCEPHALUS IN POSTOPERATIVE CASES OF MYELOMENINGOCELE. NEED OF VENTRICULOPERITONEAL SHUNT? Abstract Objectives: To assess the frequency of hydrocephalus in postoperative cases of myelomeningocele and the need of ventriculoperitoneal shunt placement. Study Design: Descriptive study Place and Duration: CMH Rawalpindi from Sep 2008 to Nov 2009. Subjects and Methods: Forty patients of either sex with myelomeningocele were included. These patients did not have hydrocephalus at the time of presentation. They were operated upon for myelomeningocele. Postoperative follow up was carried out at 1, 2 and 3 months to look for the development of hydrocephalus. Data was analyzed using SPSS version 17. Results: Out of forty patients 22 (55%) were males and 18 (45%) were females. The age ranged from newborn to 10 months. Thirty five (87.5%) patients had lumbosacral myelomeningocele, 2 (5%) patients thoracic, 2(5%) patients cervical while one patient (2.5%) presented with both cervical and lumbosacral myelomeningocele. Postoperatively 21 (52.5%) patients developed hydrocephalus which were subsequently confirmed on CT scan head and were then subjected to ventriculoperitoneal shunting. Conclusion: High frequency of hydrocephalus was observed in postoperative cases of myelomeningocele and patients presenting with one entity must be looked for the other. Postoperative cases of myelomeningocele should be regularly followed for the evidence of hydrocephalus. Article INTRODUCTION The goal in neurosurgery when treating children with predominantly myelomeningo-cele is to maintain stable neurological functioning throughout the life time of the affected patient.
