Supreme Court suspended the sentences of human rights lawyer Imaan Zainab Mazari-Hazir and her spouse, Hadi Ali Chattha, in the controversial social media posts case.

The development came as a two-judge SC bench, comprising Justice Naeem Akhtar Afghan and Justice Ishtiaq Ibrahim, took up the couple’s appeals against the Islamabad High Court’s (IHC) refusal in February to suspend the sentences.

The development underscores the importance of due process, judicial review, freedom of expression, and the protection of fundamental rights in cases involving human rights and fundamental freedoms.

عالمی یومِ جمہوریت | 15 ستمبر

جمہوریت صرف انتخابات کا نام نہیں، بلکہ عوام کے حقِ رائے، آزادی، مساوات، انصاف اور باوقار زندگی کے تحفظ کا نام ہے۔

آئیے ایسی جمہوریت کے لیے آواز بلند کریں جہاں ہر شہری کو بولنے، سوال کرنے، اختلاف کرنے، فیصلہ سازی میں حصہ لینے اور اپنے حقوق کے لیے پُرامن جدوجہد کرنے کا حق حاصل ہو۔

مضبوط جمہوری اقدار — ایک زیادہ منصفانہ اور جامع پاکستان کی بنیاد ہیں۔

Together for Rights. Together for Justice. Together for Inclusion.

The Peace & Justice Network Pakistan - PJN team recently visited Saaya Association of People with Disabilities, headed by Mr. Asim Zafar, a globally recognized disability rights leader and one of our valued member organizations working to advance and protect the rights of persons with disabilities in Pakistan.

It was truly inspiring to see the dedication, strength, and spirit of the Saaya team and the important work they are leading to promote rights, inclusion, accessibility, dignity, and empowerment for persons with disabilities.

The visit provided a wonderful opportunity to learn from their experiences, appreciate their achievements, and strengthen our collective commitment to building a Pakistan where every person can participate equally, exercise their rights, and live with dignity.

At PJN, we believe that meaningful change is built through strong networks, collective action, and solidarity among rights organizations.

Always standing together for rights, justice, and inclusion — alongside our member organizations across Pakistan. 🇵🇰💙

Peace & Justice Network Pakistan strongly welcome the decision of Lahore High Court to suspend PMDC’s return orders for Afghan medical students

پیس اینڈ جسٹس نیٹ ورک پاکستان لاہور ہائی کورٹ کے اس فیصلے کا بھرپور خیرمقدم کرتا ہے جس کے تحت افغان میڈیکل طلبہ کو واپس بھیجنے سے متعلق پی ایم ڈی سی کے احکامات معطل کر دیے گئے ہیں۔

The decision came from Justice Khalid Ishaq, who was hearing a set of petitions filed by 13 Afghan students enrolled at different institutions in Lahore, including King Edward Medical University, Shaikh Khalifa Bin Zayed Al Nahyan Medical and Dental College and the Services Institute of Medical Sciences.

The pleas were filed after the PMDC issued a notification in September 1, directing Afghan medical students enrolled in Pakistani colleges “to return to Afghanistan”. The notification also barred medical and dental colleges from granting admission or placement to Afghan students for the current academic session.

In their pleas, the students referred to the Sept 1 notification, as well as a similar July 31 directive by the PMDC, and requested the LHC to declare them “illegal and unconstitutional”, without lawful authority and void from inception.
