ISLAMABAD (The Thursday Times) — Supreme Court ki judge Justice Ayesha Malik ne Mangal ko is soch ko challenge kiya ke khawateen rape ko "dawat" deti hain, aur khabardar kiya ke Pakistan mein jinsi tashaddud itna mamool ban chuka hai ke ab us par kafi ghussa paida nahin hota.
Justice Malik rape muqadmat ka faisla karne se mutaalliq bench book ke launch par keynote address de rahi thin, jo mulk ki gender-based violence courts ke judges ke liye likhi gayi hai. Unhon ne khawateen ke bare mein un rawayyon par bunyadi nazar-e-sani ka mutalba kiya jo victim-blaming ko barqarar rehne dete hain.
Insani Huqooq ki wazarat ne Legal Aid Society aur United Nations Population Fund ke saath mil kar yeh bench book tayyar ki hai, jo 10 abwab mein qanoon aur aala adalaton ki rehnumai pesh karti hai, aur yeh abwab trial ki tarteeb ke mutabiq hain. Is ke saath aik qaumi jaiza bhi launch kiya gaya, jo Senate ki Functional Committee on Human Rights ke saath tayyar kiya gaya, aur jis mein yeh dekha gaya ke gender-based violence ke itne kam muqadmat sazaon par kyun khatm hote hain, aur yeh nishandehi ki gayi ke woh pehli police report se le kar tehqeeqat, medical muaine, istighase aur trial tak kahan kamzor par jate hain.
"Abhi tak humahang nahin hue"
"Bench book woh sab, jo Parliament ne nafiz kiya, us ke saath woh bhi jo aala adalaton ne qarar diya hai, us judge ki pahunch mein rakh deti hai jise us par amal karna hai," Senator Ayesha Raza Farooq ne kaha, jo Anti-Rape (Investigation and Trial) Act 2021 par special committee ki sadarat karti hain. Insani Huqooq ke Secretary Abdul Khalique Shaikh ka lehja zyada do-took tha: "Sachchi surat-e-haal yeh hai ke kaghaz par likhe lafz aur zameen par amal abhi tak humahang nahin hue."
Legal Aid Society ki chief executive Barrister Haya Emaan Zahid ne kaha ke judges ko deri se report kiye jane, medical shahadat mein khala aur khandan ke andar taqat ke taalluqat ko un ke sahih pasmanzar mein parakhna chahiye. UNFPA ke Pakistan mein numainda Dr Luay Shabaneh ne kaha: "Durust dalail ke saath likha gaya faisla adalat ke andar aur bahar har aik ko tahaffuz deta hai."
Bachchon ke huqooq ki tanzeem Sahil ne 2026 ke pehle chhe maheenon mein Pakistan bhar mein jinsi bunyad par tashaddud ke 3,172 waqiat record kiye, jin mein 644 qatl, 280 zyadti aur 132 nam nihad ghairat ke naam par qatl shamil hain. Mangal ko pehle, Punjab ki Wazir-e-Aala Maryam Nawaz ne kaha ke unhon ne hamle ka nishana banne walon se kaha tha ke woh palat kar maarein aur azm kiya ke koi jamaat mujrimon ko tahaffuz nahin degi.
