Dated: _________ Mr. Zafar Iqbal Ph.D. Scholar v ABSTRACT The US launched War on Terror (WOT) with an intent to bring the perpetrators and abettors of the 9/11 incident to justice in its own terms and satisfaction. The US became the sole judge in its own cause, ousted Taliban government and eliminated Al-Qaeda leadership. This approach of retributive justice demonstrated the US hegemony and pursuit of realism. Pakistan joined the WOT in the wake of US threats but became the subject of terrorism and ultimately turned into a battlefield in the fight against terrorism. National and internal security of Pakistan was jeopardized. Performance of the agencies of criminal justice system became subject of open public criticism. Consequently, the Armed Forces had to assume the responsibility of national security and administration of justice, which is against the principle of tricotomy of power enshrined in the constitution. This research proposes that the WOT has collapsed the whole edifice of criminal justice system in Pakistan. In order to analyse this proposition, the research explores causes of WOT and examines American rationale for initiating WOT. The study also explores effects of WOT on national security and criminal justice system of Pakistan as well as different parameters of its criminal justice system vis-à-vis terrorism. It also discovers different theories of crimes and examines utility of different theories of punishments in deciding terrorism-related cases. The study also discovers history and evolution of security and anti-terrorism laws of Pakistan and the effects of amendments introduced after 9/11 on the criminal justice in Pakistan. The research also examines role and efficacy of courts martial as an alternative mechanism for criminal administration of justice in terrorism cases. The study is mainly based on qualitative analysis and extensive review of literature on the subjects of national security, peace and conflict, international humanitarian law, legal theories and analysis of the laws relating to terrorism. The dissertation has been organized into seven chapters, with separate introduction and conclusions. The study does not prove the hypothesis to the hilt. Nevertheless, it concludes that the criminal justice system of Pakistan did not succeed in meeting the challenges of WOT and play its effective role in eradicating the menace of terrorism through justice. The study recommends that WOT may be successfully fought through a comprehensive strategy based on equal cooperation, ownership and devotion of all the stake-holders. vi ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I express my deep gratitude to Dr. Farkhanda Zia Mansoor, Professor of Law in the International Islamic Studies, Islamabad for supervising, steering and rendering intimate guidance in completing this Ph.D dissertation.

  • 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).

ABSTRACT This thesis examines the relationship between violence and urbanity. Using Karachi, Pakistan, as a case study, it asks how violent cities are imagined and experienced by their residents. The thesis draws on a variety of theoretical and epistemological frameworks from urban studies to analyze the social and historical processes of urbanization that have led to the perception of Karachi as a city of violence. It then uses the distinction that Michel de Certeau draws between strategy and tactic in his seminal work The Practice of Everyday Life to analyze how Karachiites inhabit, imagine, and invent their city in the midst of – and in spite of – ongoing urban violence.

  • Extremism and Terrorism
    Pakistan: Extremism and Terrorism On April 21, 2021, a car bomb exploded in the parking lot of the Serena Hotel in Quetta, killing at least five and wounding 11. Chinese ambassador to Pakistan Nong Rong was staying in the hotel but was not present during the attack. Tehrik-e Taliban Pakistan (TTP) claimed responsibility. “It was a suicide attack in which our suicide bomber used his explosives-filled car in the hotel,” the TTP said in a text message to Reuters. (Sources: Reuters, Associated Press) On April 12, 2021, police in Lahore arrested Saad Rizvi, leader of the outlawed Islamist political party Tehreek-e-Labaik Pakistan (TLP). The arrest was reportedly to deter TLP supporters from further demanding the expulsion of France’s ambassador over the publication in France of cartoons featuring Islam’s Prophet Muhammad. Rizvi had claimed the government had reached an agreement with his party to expel the ambassador by April 20, while government officials claimed they agreed only to discuss the issue in parliament. In response to Rizvi’s arrest, TLP supporters blocked highways and clash with police across the country over the course of two days, killing at least four people and wounding dozens of others, including at least 60 police officers. On April 18, TLP supporters attacked a police station in Lahore while rallying in the city against Rizvi’s arrest. The protesters took hostage 11 officers. The protesters released the hostages the following day after negotiations with the government. Photos released of the hostages during the negotiations showed they had been tortured. (Sources: Voice of America, Associated Press) Overview Since its independence from British colonial rule in 1947, Pakistan has been divided along ethnic, religious, and sectarian lines, a condition which has been exploited by internal and external organizations to foster extremism and terrorism.

  • Pakistan Army and Terrorism; an Unholy Alliance
    Pakistan Army and Terrorism; an unholy alliance Pakistan has been known for its perennial support of the Taliban in Afghanistan and other terrorist organizations in Indian Administered Jammu and Kashmir. The dramatic events of the terrorist attacks on the twin towers in the United States (U.S) on the 11th of September 2001 also referred to as 9/11, shook the tectonic plates of world politics, pushing Pakistan into being a focal point of global politics. Pakistan became the key strategic partner of United States’ War on Terror; post the terrorist attacks, taking a complete U-turn in her traditional foreign policies towards Afghanistan and Indian Administered Jammu and Kashmir, albeit temporarily under international pressure for heavy monetary gains. The country, in which sectarian groups targeting minority communities (Shias, Sufis, Ahmadis etc.) and Kashmir- focused groups confined their operations to Indian Administered Kashmir and the rest of India, has become a victim of its own holy war as a consequence of the ‘unholy alliance’ between the Inter Intelligence Services (ISI), Pakistan’s powerful intelligence agency, military and self-styled religious scholars. This historic alliance has resulted in colossal rise of radical Islam being a factor in the country’s proclivity to Islamic fundamentalism. Jihadi Groups There are several kind of militant groups operating in and from Pakistan that can be distinguished by their sectarian background (Ahl-e-Hadith, Deobandi, Jamaat-e-Islami etc.), and their areas of operation (Afghanistan, India, Pakistan). Their objectives may vary from overthrowing the Pakistani government, seizure of Indian Administered Jammu and Kashmir or support of Afghan Taliban.
