Urging world leaders to put an end to what is being called “political genocide” in Pakistan.
Qaiser writes letters to the EU, the US, and the UK as well as worldwide human rights organizations asking them to take note of governmental acts.
ISLAMABAD:
The European Union, the US House of Representatives, the British House of Lords, and international human rights organizations have all received letters from the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) requesting their attention to the attack on the party’s chairman, Imran Khan, as well as violence against lawmakers and activists.
Asad Qaiser, a former National Assembly speaker and PTI leader, has written to the US House of Representatives, House of Lords, EU, IPU, CPA, and human rights organizations on behalf of the PTI, pleading with them to take notice of the government’s violence against lawmakers and employees and to take action to put an end to it. It has been requested that people pay attention and take part in the opposition against the government’s policies.
As a former speaker, Qaiser said in the letters that “I want to raise awareness of human rights problems in Pakistan.”
The most well-liked political party in the nation, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf, chose to seek a new mandate and resign from the house as a result of political horse dealing.
In the letters, he claimed that the interim administrations in Punjab and Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa violated serious human rights in order to silence political workers’ voices. Imran Khan, the former prime minister, was the target of homicidal attacks, including 11 bullets fired and 127 charges being registered, all in an effort to get him expelled from politics.
In the letters, Qaiser claimed that the former prime minister’s home was the target of many attacks and that staff members were tortured. Arshad Sharif, a well-known journalist, was assassinated, but his mother has not yet obtained justice. Zille Shah, a PTI employee, died in Punjab. A charge was filed against Imran for the savage murder of his own activist Ali Bilal alias Zille Shah after he was killed while in police custody.
The letters complained that the Pakistan Democratic Movement government had used phony audio and video to blackmail the country’s highest court.
Pakistan is a signatory to several international human rights accords, and attempts would be made to unconstitutionally ban the PTI if the [current] government’s activities are not stopped.
Qaiser said in the letters that the Election Commission of Pakistan unlawfully delayed the polls in two provinces despite the Supreme Court’s unequivocal directions.
Qaiser also brought up Maryam Nawaz, the senior vice president of the PML-N, who referred to the political workers as bigoted and racist. The former speaker pleaded on them to do their part to prevent “the collapse of democracy” as well as “the political genocide of the Pakistani people”.
