So this is when they care to remember and acknowledge the existence of the ICCPR. Amazing. https://t.co/2ZnSyOG6Eq
Supreme Court of Pakistan has held that under international law, including Article 14 of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR), military tribunals are not per se unconstitutional.

Tragic that Islamabad High Court, once known for justice & rights, has become unsafe for lawyers who defend human rights. Abuse of terrorism laws-in this case by bar president against innocent lawyers- must end. More power to @ImaanZHazir & @AdvHadiali who represent the voiceless
🚨🚨#BREAKING: #Peshawar high court granted transit bail to lawyers and prominent human rights defenders @ImaanZHazir and @AdvHadiali till 9th October in the terrorism case registered by @ICT_Police on the complaint of IHCBA President.

On how the last time a Justice Dogar was in the news there was military rule; the utterly shameful act of the President IHCBA in registering an FIR against lawyers; and inaction no longer being an option for the CJP and SC. Today’s piece for Dawn: https://t.co/nke8ZrNNTK

The struggle for judicial independence has returned — only this time, the fight comes not from generals but from within the courts themselves.

Zainab Janjua & Imaan Mazari are fiercely independent and well-respected lawyers that are being punished for their views. It is shameful that the President IHCBA is weaponising the law, and suppressing independent voices. Statement by female lawyers demanding withdrawal of FIR.

@ImaanZHazir @zainabjanjua1 In fact I would argue they surpass many men in this profession with their abilities. As it is the legal fraternity and bar politics are a cesspool for women. Both Zainab & Imaan hold their own & have carved out a space for themselves & others - they are now being punished for it.

@ImaanZHazir @zainabjanjua1 This also exposes prevalent mindset with respect to female professionals who are not considered to be of equal ability as though they have no mind of their own and cannot stand by the causes they believe in personally and professionally - which both do. Reductionist & demeaning.

While registration of a false and malicious FIR against scores of lawyers by IHC Bar President is condemnable, also deplorable is his naming @ImaanZHazir & @zainabjanjua1 & imputing motives (i.e. foreign agenda & standing by one judge). Not only are these baseless accusations 1/2

The registration of an FIR labeling lawyers as terrorists is unprecedented and allegations of them carrying firearms & knives are ridiculous. This kind of an FIR typically emerges after a village brawl. We stand by @ImaanZHazir , Hadi, Zainab & others and condemn this bogus FIR.

Karachi Bar Association condemns FIR registered by Wajid Gilani President IHCBA (for attempted murder, terrorism etc) against members of his own bar association in order to shield CJ Sarfaraz Dogar. Terms him an instrument of dictatorial forces and a disgrace to his office.

Apart from the lies, first time I’ve ever heard of a bar president registering any FIR (let alone under ATA) against members of his own bar. Shameful for bar leaders to sell their soul & mandate to agencies. Irony is Wajid Gilani was elected on manifesto opposing 26th amendment!

“Imagine living under laws that over-legislate your existence, simultaneously fearing you, and pitying you, reducing you to a reproductive vessel. If a woman were a car, to use one analogy, she would be denied headlights and an engine — deliberately mutilated.” Thank you for
My article in @Dawn_News on @ImaanZHazir teaching the Chief Justice Dogar some basics on the rule of law, because he became (in my opinion) too emotional and forgot his manners. https://t.co/euKPGS9I4s

If anyone asks you about the rule of law in this country, all you have to do is show them this photo. They might then ask you what got us here. There’s a long answer and short one to that question. The short answer is Qazi faez isa.

The Lawyers Welfare and Protection Act 2023 defines act of violence as an act committed with the intent to derail fair & fearless conduct of cases including harassment. Threats and harassment have no place in our courts. @WomenInLawPk statement in solidarity with @ImaanZHazir.
Under the Lawyers Welfare and Protection Act of 2023, advocates are protected, amongst other things, against harassment and threats that prevent them from discharging their duties. We stand in solidarity with fellow advocate Imaan Zainab Mazari-Hazir and ...

From “Control Your Wife” to silencing women judges taking up harassment complaints: the misogyny of the Islamabad High Court, and Pakistan's 'justice' system in general ➡️ If you have ever wondered why many Pakistani women don't go to court when they are wronged, this is why.

Spoke to @courtneyr about a Reuters investigation into Meta’s AI rules for chatbots that allowed “sensual chats with children.” We discuss concerns around safety of users, ethics, regulation, and corporate accountability. https://t.co/nX7ItinjdM
