Chief Justice of Pakistan Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry on September 3 questioned the Balochistan Government’s decision to give Police powers to Frontier Corps (FC) in Quetta, asking why the FC had been delegated policing powers when various allegations already existed against it, reports Pakistan Today. Hearing the Balochistan law and order case at Supreme Court’s Quetta Registry with Justice Khilji Arif Hussain and Justice Jawwad S Khwaja, the Chief Justice wondered what the Police had been doing all this time for restoring order in the province. Hearing the petition filed by the Balochistan High Court Bar Association, the Chief Justice said smuggled cars were being used across Balochistan and people were openly carrying and displaying arms. He said the authorities concerned were not taking any serious action and were involved in mere lip service, adding that deteriorating law and order had forced people to move to Punjab, Sindh and other areas of the country. Further, the Supreme Court asked Inspector General (IG) of Balochistan Tariq Omar Khitab to submit a list of people who lost their lives in targeted attacks in the province during the last six months, reports The Express Tribune. Khitab maintained the Police were short-staffed with at least 58 posts lying vacant in the province.

Chief Justice of Pakistan Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry on September 5 said the recovery of missing persons remained the top priority for the Supreme Court, adding that the Security Forces had failed to restore peace and order in Balochistan, reports Pakistan Today. Hearing the Balochistan unrest case at the Supreme Court’s Quetta Registry, Chief Justice Chaudhry said the court knew what law had to do. He expressed his anguish over the attitude of the defense and federal secretaries who did not appear before the court. “It appears from the secretaries’ attitude that they have no interest in Balochistan,” he said. Frontier Corps Inspector General Obaidullah Khattak acknowledged that the performance of law enforcement agencies in recovering missing persons was unsatisfactory. Reprimanding the FC IG, the chief justice said the province’s security situation was deteriorating by the day and judges, uniformed coast guards and members of the Shia community were being targeted and killed at will. Khattak said the court should consider the FC’s actions in the region and make a note of the sacrifices rendered by its members. “You have failed. We know what the law has to do. Give us in writing if you can’t do anything,” Justice Chaudhry said. “Who will provide relief to the people? The United Nations has taken a notice of Shia killings. Shia-Sunni killing is bringing a bad name to the country.”

Pakistan should “urgently act” to protect Shias from rising sectarian attacks by the rival Sunni sect that have killed hundreds this year, the Human Rights Watch (HRW) said on September 6, reports Daily Times. At least 320 Shias have been killed in targeted attacks this year across Pakistan, including more than 100 in Balochistan, the HRW said in a statement. “Deadly attacks on Shia communities across Pakistan are escalating,” Brad Adams, Asia Director at the HRW, said in the same statement, adding, “The Government’s persistent failure to apprehend attackers or prosecute the extremist groups organising the attacks suggests that it is indifferent to this carnage”. The rights watchdog said terrorist groups such as the “ostensibly banned” Lashkar-e-Jhangvi (LeJ) had operated with “widespread impunity” across Pakistan while law enforcement officials looked the other way. LeJ is regarded as Pakistan’s most extreme outfit, accused of killing hundreds of Shias after its emergence in the early 1990s. Adams said the arrest last month of LeJ member Malik Ishaq, who has been accused of killing some 70 people, was “an important test for Pakistan’s criminal justice system”.

A junior Federal Minister was furious in the National Assembly on September 10 over the visit to Pakistan of a United Nations (UN) team to collect data about the so-called missing persons, reports Dawn. Minister of State for Housing and Works, Mohammad Raza Hayat Hiraj, saw a sinister interference in the 10-day visit of the delegation of the UN Working Group on Enforced or Involuntary Disappearances (WGEID) that arrived Islamabad to probe an issue already being investigated at Home by the Supreme Court and a Parliamentary Committee on National Security. “There are other motives behind this,” said Mr Hiraj, who belongs to the Pakistan Muslim League-Quaid (PML-Q). He said he feared the report of the UN team would be used to highlight the views of “one per cent” separatists of Balochistan — emphasising that 99 per cent people of the province were loyal to Pakistan — and demanded that the house debate the issue for which he said he could move an adjournment motion or a house committee deliberate on what he described as an issue more important than those of electricity and floods that were earlier raised in the house.

The Christian girl accused of committing blasphemy, according to officials, was on September 10 shifted to an undisclosed place from the Police Lines Headquarters (PLH) in Islamabad where she had been staying since her release from the Adiala Jail on September 7, 2012, reports Dawn. Tight security arrangements were made to take the girl to some other city from the women’s barracks at the PLH where she had been kept along with her family, the officials said. A Police official said that after leaving the PLH the girl’s family met a Government representative who later went to the airport, fuelling speculations that the family might also have left with him for a foreign country. But adviser to Prime Minister on National Harmony Doctor Paul Bhatti said that the girl and her family had not left the country. Doctor Bhatti said the girl and her family had moved to the safe place selected by the authorities.

The Supreme Court on September 24 clubbed a set of identical petitions challenging the promulgation of Action in Aid of Civil Power Regulations-2011 and Section 2(1d) of the Army Act-1952, ordering its office to issue notices to the respondents, including Intelligence Agencies namely the Inter-Service Intelligence (ISI) and Military Intelligence (MI), reports Dawn. The Action in Aid of Civil Power Regulations-2011 allows the civil Government to confine persons accused of terrorism in internment centres in Parachinar in Kurram Agency. Section 2(1d) of the Army Act-1,952 allows arrest of civilians on terrorism charges. A three-judge bench, comprising Chief Justice Iftikhar Mohammad Chaudhry, Justice Jawwad S. Khawaja and Justice Khilji Arif Hussain, had taken up the petitions moved by Professor Mohammad Ibrahim of Jama’at-e-Islami (JeI), Sher Mohammad, President of the Swat Bar Association and Advocate Tariq Asad. The court allowed Asad to re-submit his petition in a week after making required amendments because his client Ruhaifa, mother of Abdul Majid and Abdul Basit who had been detained in the internment centre, had died. The two brothers were among the 11 prisoners who went missing from the gate of Rawalpindi’s Adiala Jail on May 29, 2010 after they had been acquitted of terrorism charges pertaining to their alleged involvement in the audacious October 2009 attacks on GHQ and ISI’s Hamza Camp in Rawalpindi.

After having remained silent during three years of self-imposed exile, President of the Balochistan National Party (BNP) and Balochistan’s former Chief Minister Sardar Akhtar Jan Mengal spoke in the Supreme Court on September 27 and described enforced disappearances as the real cause of the current unrest in Balochistan, reports Dawn. “Why should not we divorce peacefully rather than seeking for a bloody divorce if the rulers have decided to keep on giving us mutilated dead bodies,” Sardar Mengal said. The bench comprising Chief Justice Iftikhar Mohammad Chaudhry, Justice Jawwad S. Khawaja and Justice Khilji Arif Hussain had taken up a petition of former President of the Balochistan High Court Bar Association Hadi Shakeel on the law and order situation, target killings, kidnappings for ransom and missing persons in the province.
