The situation of human rights in Pakistan is deteriorating especially when the imported government of a cabal of crooks is installed through a US-backed regime change operation.
In the aftermath of the regime change operation, public outrage for removing Imran Khan increased and it shocked the Imported government, its local collaborators, and abettors. Public take to the street to show solidarity with ousted PM Imran Khan and stage a protest against regime Change operation by sending an elected democratic PM in the darkness of night where people’s mandate is stolen and crushed by powerful elites. The calculations of the imported government and its local abettors goes wrong and they started harassing the public by speaking against the government and regime Change operation. 25 May will be remembered forever in the history of Pakistan as a black day where security forces on the directions of the interior ministry and federal government open fire on peaceful protestors of Khan and abducted people in the mid of night, violating the sanctity of homes, arrested women, children and intimidated family of the party leaders. The scenes on media were so disturbing, it looks like it’s occupied Pakistan, and its citizens the country is facing persecution and harassment without due process of law.
Fake FIRs, frivolous cases, and misuse of laws in Pakistan against political rivals and dissenters are at their peak in the imported regime. Chief of staff of ousted PM Imran Khan, Dr. Shahbaz gill is booked under sedition law_ a British law to gag dissenter. Journalists and activists are booked for speaking against regime Change operations and Ex-PM Imran Khan is booked under terrorism charges for his speech against the female judge. Khan is charged with 7ATA to gag him. These frivolous acts of government lead to furore in international media. International media made headlines on khan’s terrorism charges and condemned the misuse and abuse of laws in Pakistan. Recently IHC CJ observed that Khan’s words may be not appropriate but booking him under terrorism law is a joke. Amnesty International, human rights organizations, the UN, and other international organization shows concern over the human rights abuses in Pakistan. Professor Noam Chomsky write a letter to the Chief justice of Pakistan to ensure human rights and stressed the authorities to respect human rights.
Custodial torture is the worst form of human rights violation in Pakistan. The torture in custody of an accused is highly alarming. Anchor Imran Riaz Khan, Dr. Shahbaz gill, and Anchor Jameel faroqi accused the authorities that they were stripped, strangled, and tortured physically and mentally. A professor and chief of staff of ex-premier
Imran Khan Dr. Shahbaz gill confessed that he was sexually tortured and current was inflicted upon his “penis and testicles”. This inhumane treatment in custody is highly condemnable. How does a civilized society and nation go to this low? This is seriously bizarre that law enforcement agencies treated people like this. This must stop. Shehbaz Gill’s allegations are very serious, these must be investigated impartially and culprits must be brought to justice.
The media is gagged by the imported regime. The ARY, Bol, and GNN are banned from airing khan’s telethons and speeches. The worst kind of censorship and fascism took over Pakistan. Anchor Imran Riaz Khan revealed that” he was tortured too and kept in Chakki and now threatening calls are coming that if you speak on “deep state” Regime change operation then we’ll your tongue and you will be unable to speak”.
These kinds of suffocation and fascism in Pakistan are witnessed for the first time under an imported hybrid regime. Those who admired the “Tajrubakar team ” of a cabal of crooks are gagged now and the media became the mouthpiece and lapdog of this imported regime. They never raised their voices for the torture, human rights abuses, censorship, and abduction of innocent people. Where are champions of freedom of speech? Democracy? And plurality? The 13 parties in the imported govt and its local collaborators are responsible for this debacle of Pakistan in every sector.
International human rights organizations condemned the inhumane treatment and censorship of media by the imported regime and call upon Geo and Sama to not become mouthpieces of this regime, and be a watchdog, not a lapdog.
The dismal situation of human rights in Pakistan is very disturbing, barbarism and fascism must stop and sanity should prevail. The supreme court of Pakistan took notice of gill’s torture in custody, which is highly commendable. SC must ensure justice.
