It is written in the constitution of Pakistan that no person shall be deprived of his liberty, except in case of punishment after conviction of any offense by a court of law. In this regard, there is also the law of habeas bija, that is, if someone goes to the court and petitions that his loved one is imprisoned in such a police station and he has not been presented in the court within 24 hours, then the magistrate himself in the police station or any private place. Where the hostage is likely to be kept, will be raided, thus further legal action will be taken. 

When the war on terror was started, the cases of enforced disappearances increased in the cases of forced disappearances, which were not carried out by the police but by the intelligence agencies of Pakistan, which the courts could not do anything about. Because now there was no police station and only someone's private property where raids were conducted. They were not allowed to go to the internment centers. 

Finally, when the issue was highlighted, the government created the Commission on Enforced Disappearances in 2011, where families of missing persons started registering their cases and appearing before JITS of all agencies. This commission has also been a failure so far because it also does not have access to any internment centers and prisoners there, some families have been reunited with their loved ones through this commission, but thousands of cases have finally been closed. Or the time is running. Those whose cases were closed were closed if any institution refused to accept them in JITS, the commission also had to accept because they cannot go to any internment center themselves. 

The same thing happened with the courts, for example a case of Rizwanullah was taken up in 2016. The family filed cases in both the High Court and the Commission. The commission had told him in 2021 that production orders for his loved one had been issued, but so far nothing has been given about Rizwanullah. Thus, the court was also unable to resolve their case when the family told them that the commission had asked them to release the production orders of their loved one, so the court asked for the production orders. When the commission was contacted, it was told by them that they had only told you verbally, but they could not provide the orders in the form of returns. 

Now if production orders are given to the court then can they do anything? 

Sadly, probably not. A permanent solution to this problem should be found now. Such a dysfunctional of courts, law and constitution will prove to be very harmful.

Naqeeb Ullah Mehsud popularly known as Naseemullah was born on January 1, 1991, in a small village of South Waziristan's Makeen tehsil. He had 3 children (two daughters and a son). He acquired a loan of 5 lakh PKR from his relatives and planned to start a clothing store in Sohrab Goth, Karachi. Prior to opening a clothing shop he worked in a garment mill in Karachi and with the meagre savings he managed to fund his passion for modelling.

He used to run a popular Facebook page where he posted pictures of his modelling days, in myriad hues and shades. He was no less than an idol to young people of the Mehsud tribe in Karachi.
By late December 2017, Naqeebullah's page had more than 14,000 followers, and he often posted amusing content which gained traction of the masses.

On September 16, he posted a warning to young people to not to engage in the "Blue Whale Challenge", a reported viral social media challenge then that encouraged self-harm, particularly to the young minds.

In late January 2018, a statement from the Karachi police floated which said that they killed at least 318 suspects during raids and shoot-outs in Karachi.

It was the dreadful time when so-called "encounter killings" were prevalent in Pakistan. Various Human Rights groups reports suggested that Pakistan police killed many innocents due to lack of enough evidence for a court conviction. Extrajudicial killings increased manifolds in Pakistan particularly in the Pashtun region. 

Naqeeb Ullah- Victim of Pakistan’s extrajudicial killing

 On 3 January 2018, Naqeebullah was kidnapped along with two of his friends, Hazrat Ali and Muhammad Qasim by SSP Rao Anwar's men in plainclothes from Gulsher Agha Hotel in Karachi. On 6 January, both of his friends were set free by the police but Naqeebullah was kept in captivity, tortured, and then killed on 13 January in a fake encounter in which he was shot twice. Alongside Naqeebullah, three other men namely Muhammad Sabir and Muhammad Ishaq from Bahawalpur and Nazar Jan Mahsud from South Waziristan were also killed by the police in the staged encounter, the latter of whom was shot from a close range. On 17 January, Naqeebullah's dead body was handed over to his relatives at the Chhipa Welfare Association morgue in Karachi. On 18 January, his body was taken by his relatives to Tank, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, where Islamic funeral prayer was performed for him, and on the same day, he was buried at his hometown Makeen, South Waziristan.

 The question which surrounds the conspiracy are:

 1- If Naqeebbullah was releted to any terror organisation, then why hasn't he been investigated till date and even if the investigation has been done, why has it not been made public till date?

2- If Naqeebbullah was innocent then why Rao Anwar was not framed and prosecuted?

3- When will Naqeebbullah get justice?

4- Even after Naqeebbullah, hundreds of innocent Pashtuns like Naqeeb have become victims of state sponsored target killing. When will target killing cease? 

 1:Both Manzoor Pashteen and Bacha Khan were Pashtun leaders who sought to promote the rights and welfare of Pashtuns in Pakistan and Afghanistan, respectively.

 2: They both believed in nonviolence as a means of achieving their goals and worked to promote education and social justice for their communities.

6- Both leaders were deeply concerned with issues of justice and equality and worked to address social and political inequalities within their communities.

9- Bacha Khan and Manzoor Pashteen were both influential figures in the Pashtun nationalist movement and sought to promote Pashtun self-determination.  

10- Both leaders were recognized for their contributions to their communities and have received numerous awards and honors for their work.

Both countries have a long history, but it's easy to get confused about which is which. That's why we've put together this blog to help you understand the key differences between these two nations. Here, we'll explore the 10 most important differences between Pakistan and Afghanistan.

5. Education: Education is important in both countries, but there are differences in their systems. In Pakistan, the overall literacy rate is 58.7%, while in Afghanistan, it is only 28.1%. The main reason for the stark difference is their conflict over the past 70 years.

These are some of the most important differences between Pakistan and Afghanistan. We hope this blog has helped you gain a better understanding of both countries.

 1. Punjabi Muslims are often seen as arrogant. 

2. Punjabis are seen as too quick to assimilate and embrace Western culture, whereas Pashtuns are seen as staunchly traditional and conservative.

3. Punjabis have a long history of mistreating Pashtuns, going all the way back to the time of the Mughal empire. 

4. Punjabis are seen as too eager to use their wealth to gain influence and power, which Pashtuns view as crass and inappropriate.

5. Punjabis are seen as too quick to abandon their culture and language in favor of Urdu while Pashtuns are forbidden to speak their own language pashto

6. Punjabis are seen as too willing to curry favor Pakistani army atrocities in Waziristan, which Pashtuns view as a betrayal of their own people.

8. Punjabis are seen as too quick to forget their own history and the legacy of the Pashtun people in the region.

9. Punjabis are seen as too quick to blame Pashtuns for the ills of the region, instead of looking to their own actions as the cause.

Being a Pashtun is about more than just a culture – it's about a centuries-old way of life still alive today. Here are 13 things every Pashtun wants you to know about their culture and history:

1. Pashtuns are a proud people with a deep sense of identity. The Pashtun people have their own language, Pashto, their own traditional dress, and their own code of honor – the Pashtunwali.

2. Many Pashtuns are nomadic, meaning they travel and live across Afghanistan, Pakistan, and other parts of Central and South Asia.

11. Pashtun literature is also popular, with poets such as Rahman Baba and Khushal Khan Khattak being some of the most beloved figures.

13. Pashtuns have a long tradition of storytelling and proverbs, which are passed down through generations and help to keep the culture alive.

 

 

 

Let's unveil the truth!

On 19th September 2015, Pakistan army dropped bombs on the houses of civilians with the help of US drones in Ziyarat Zhay area of tehsil Sarwakai of South Waziristan. Four women and five children were martyred in the bombing. Two of those five children were below the age of 2 years. Their bodies were shattered into such small pieces that people of the area could put them in sacks and bury them. One of the fathers were busy gathering the remains of their daughter’s dead bodies for their burial. Then he touched one of those hands drowned in blood and saw a ring in her hand. He remembered that the ring was his elder daughter’s because he bought it for her on Eid-Ul-Fitr. After which he fell unconscious.
Eyes were swollen and hearts were filled with umpteen pain. 

Next day after the incident, it was published in all the newspapers of Pakistan including international newspaper BBC that in the massive success of the Pakistani Air Forces, the bombing of Ziyarat, 22 terrorists were killed.  

The political administration and elected representatives didn’t even condole with the affected family. Abdul Manan said while talking to media personnel that the government is treating the Mehsud tribe with sheer discrimination. Thus, those termed as successful army operations by the government and the international media are often the methods to suppress and subdue those who come together to voice out their aggression towards the unjust methods. The term ‘Operation’ has been losely used as a masking for the agencies to prove their unjust ways and means to stifle the dissent.
