Goals / Remit
A region plagued with violations where the rule of law is a casualty, strong voices are required with local and international support to halt this process. Advocacy and lobbying takes the center-stage in the region, particularly in Pakistan, where illegal arrests leading to extrajudicial killings, torture and enforced disappearances as the only means of investigation and punishment are practiced. Extensive use or rather the abuse of the ‘blasphemy laws’ leading to the suppression of the religious minorities, is another phenomenon that is taking enormous proportions is another menace that needs to be addressed. The key element in combatting all these human rights challenges in our opinion is advocacy with a call for mass mobilization.
