HRCP concerned over threats to civil society members
HRCP says it was attempt to deflect attention away from commission proposed by IHC
LAHORE: The HRCP is gravely concerned by reports that individuals and groups with far-right affiliations have threatened civil society members including journalist and HRCP Co-chair Munizae Jahangir for drawing attention to the entrapment of young people by religious extremists.
In a press release issued here on Wednesday, the HRCP said it was an attempt to deflect attention away from a commission proposed by the Islamabad High Court to investigate instances of entrapment through false allegations of blasphemy a matter already documented by the state. “We have written to the Punjab chief minister and the federal interior minister to express our concern, calling on the provincial and federal governments to take immediate action,” the HRCP said.
