  • Pakistan's State-Terrorism and the Plight of the Pashtun
    COMMENT COMMENT 197 – On the Asian Century, Pax Sinica & Beyond (XIII): Pakistan’s state-terrorism and the plight of the Pashtuns By Siegfried O. Wolf 30 September 2020– DOI: 10.48251/SADF.ISSN.2406-5617.C197 Dr. Siegfried O. Wolf, Director of Research at SADF (Coordinator: Democracy Research Programme); he was educated at the Institute of Political Science (IPW) and South Asia Institute (SAI), both Heidelberg University. Additionally he is member (affiliated researcher) of the SAI as well as a former research fellow at IPW and Centre de Sciences Humaines (New Delhi, India). In North-West Pakistan, that is in the global epicentre of Jihadism, Islamic extremism, and militancy, a new peaceful, socio-political movement has emerged. Facing a double threat, from regional and international terrorists on one side and from the federal government and its security sector agents on the other, local Pashtuns articulated their grievances and launched the Pashtun Tahafuz Movement (Movement for the protection of Pashtuns, PTM). Led by liberal and secular politicians and activists, the civic grassroots initiative PTM gained much popularity in the region during the last few years and is translating the human incurred suffering by the Pashtuns into a national discourse with growing international significance. Today, the PTM is one of the ‘most powerful human rights voices’ in Pakistan. Being the target of numerous, heavily armed campaigns by both the Pakistani army (for example Operations Zarb-e-Azb and Rah-e-Nijat) and by militant groups, areas of Pashtun settlements are largely destroyed. Livelihoods have been spoiled, and millions of people were or are still displaced.

  • Pakistan: End Reprisal and Crackdown Against Pashtun Tahaffuz Movement
    Pakistan: End reprisal and crackdown against Pashtun Tahaffuz Movement (Bangkok/Kathmandu, 14 January 2021) – The recent arrests of Pashtun Tahaffuz Movement (PTM) leaders by Pakistani authorities signal the deteriorating space for civic freedoms in the country, said the Asian Forum for Human Rights and Development (FORUM-ASIA) in a statement today. ‘The arrests of Ali Wazir and Dr Said Alam Mehsud also demonstrate the continued reprisals and crackdown on minority rights defenders in the country,’ said FORUM-ASIA’s Executive Director Shamini Darshni Kaliemuthu. ‘ PTM, a peaceful civil movement advocating for the rights of the ethnic Pashtun community has long been targeted and attacked by state authorities for their work against injustice faced by the Pashtun and other minority groups in the country. The Pakistani authorities should address the concerns of minority groups including Pashtuns and Baloch, end human rights violations against them, and create a safe environment for defenders to work free from reprisals,’ she said. Since its formation in 2018, PTM has been demanding an independent truth and reconciliation commission to investigate extrajudicial killings and the enforced disappearances of Pashtuns. However, instead of working towards addressing PTM’s demands, Pakistani authorities have used various tactics to suppress the movement through arrests of their members, false accusations of sedition,1 media censorship,2 and restrict freedom of assembly. On 1 May 2020, Arif Wazir, a leader of PTM and member of the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Provincial Assembly was shot dead by unidentified gunmen.3 ‘The arrests of PTM leaders are meant to suppress and silence the voices from minority groups.

  • Pakistan 2020 Human Rights Report
    PAKISTAN 2020 HUMAN RIGHTS REPORT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Pakistan is a federal parliamentary republic. In 2018 the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf party won the most National Assembly seats in the general elections, and the party’s leader, Imran Khan, became prime minister. While independent observers noted technical improvements in the Election Commission of Pakistan’s management of the polling process itself, observers, civil society organizations, and political parties raised concerns regarding pre-election interference by military and intelligence agencies that created an uneven electoral playing field. Some political parties also alleged significant polling day irregularities. Police have primary domestic security responsibility for most of the country. Local police are under the jurisdiction of provincial governments. Paramilitary organizations--including the Frontier Corps, which operates in Balochistan and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, including the former Federally Administered Tribal Areas, and the Rangers, which operate in Sindh and Punjab--provide security services under the authority of the Ministry of Interior. The Frontier Corps’ primary mission is security of the Pakistan-Afghanistan border, and the Corps reports to the Ministry of Interior in peacetime and the army in times of conflict. The military is responsible for external security but plays a role in domestic security, including as the lead security agency in many areas of the former Federally Administered Tribal Areas. While military and intelligence services officially report to civilian
