کیا یہ توہین عدالت نہیں؟ سپریم کورٹ نے ایمان مزاری اور ہادی چٹھہ کو ضمانت پر رہا کرنے کا حکم دیا ہے لیکن سپریم کورٹ کے فیصلے پر عمل درآمد کی بجائے ان دونوں کو جیل میں رکھنے کے بہانے تراشے جا رہے ہیں افسوس کہ ریاستی ادارے قانون کو مذاق بنا رہے ہیں
جج ابو الحسنات کی عدالت میں ایڈوکیٹ ایمان مزاری اور ایڈوکیٹ ھادی کی درخواست ضمانت پر سماعت سے تفتیشی افسر ریکارڈ سمیت غائب، جج ابو الحسنات کی برہمی اور فوری طور پر ڈی ایس پی کی ریکارڈ سمیت طلبی۔ سماعت کچھ دیر کے لئیے ملتوی۔
اس وقت ایڈوکیٹ ایمان مزاری اور ایڈوکیٹ ھادی اس واحد کیس میں گرفتار ہیں جبکہ سپریم کورٹ نے پیکا کیس میں دی گئی سزاؤں کو معطل کر کے انہیں پہلے ہی ضمانت پر رہا کرنے کا حکم دے رکھا ہے۔
ایڈوکیٹ ریاست علی آزاد نے کہا کہ یہ کیسے ہو سکتا ہے کہ ایک تفتیشی غیر حاضر ہو اور ملزم جیل میں پڑا رہے۔ یہ لوگ عدالت کو ایک آلہ بنا کر استعمال کر رہے ہیں۔
جج اب الحسنات تفتیشی افسر فخر عباس اور ڈی ایس پی لیگل کے انتظار میں کمرہ عدالت چھوڑ کر اپنے چیمبر میں چلے گئے ہیں۔

PAKISTAN: Today’s arrest of human rights lawyers Imaan Mazari-Hazir and Hadi Ali is the latest escalation in a sustained campaign of judicial harassment and intimidation by the Pakistani authorities.
Imaan and Hadi were arrested today while on their way to a court hearing and eyewitnesses report that law enforcement officials used undue force against both the lawyers and no reasons were provided at the time of arrest, raising serious concerns about their safety.
Amnesty International is alarmed by the manner of the arrest, lack of adherence to due process and by the authorities’ continued pursuit of spurious and retaliatory cases aimed solely at silencing Imaan and Hadi for their human rights work and dissent. This familiar playbook of harassment and intimidation must end. Amnesty International calls on the Pakistani authorities to immediately release Imaan Mazari‑Hazir and Hadi Ali Chattha and drop all charges targeting them solely for their work defending human rights.
PAKISTAN: Responding to the cancellation of bail of lawyers and human rights defenders Imaan Mazari-Hazir and Hadi Ali Chattha and an order to immediately arrest them in a bogus case relating to “anti-state” tweets, Amnesty International said:
“This baseless trial of Imaan Mazari-Hazir and Hadi Ali Chattha is a blatant abuse of the justice system. Pakistani authorities must end the judicial harassment and coercive tactics used to silence dissent and intimidate those who defend human rights.
The charges have been brought against Imaan Mazari and Hadi Chattha solely for the peaceful exercise of their human rights and carrying out their professional duties. Authorities must immediately drop all charges against them and rescind the orders for their arrest.”

Totally agree..it’s really concerning that choosing a refund as booking credit means guests can nev get their money back. It’s unfair that @Airbnb doesn’t provide any clear process for challenging it.Airbnb should ensure transparency and offer fair options to consumers.@bchesky
The latest is I cannot get the booking credit back into my account. If I delete my account I loose the booking credit. If I want to take it to a UK consumer forum Airbnb does not provide the details on where I could challenge this. @Airbnb @bchesky #airbnbfail

Heartbreaking news from Coney Island nursing home. No one should face abuse in a place that’s meant to care for them. We must demand accountability.

Devastating flash floods have killed more than 300 people across Pakistan-administered Kashmir. Climate change is driving the rise in extreme and dangerous weather events. My thoughts are with all those affected by this tragedy. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cn02…
Proud of voices like Prof. @drshahzadhsa a true public health visionary! at the #SelfRelianceInHealthcare conf, he rightly stressed: Pak must cut its $1B health imports by investing in local manufacturing, especially for rural, low-cost essentials. 👏

Researchers of Black, Bangladeshi or Pakistani heritage in the UK are currently underrepresented in research.
We want to help researchers break through barriers that disproportionately affect them.
That’s where our Accelerator Awards come in. [1/3]
ALT A quote from Sonya Towers, Ecosystems Manager at Wellcome, who is pictured smiling. The quote reads: "Championing underrepresented researchers is essential to improve the diversity of people leading, participating in and benefiting from science."
"The disparity isn’t accidental it’s institutional." The govt urgently needs to develop more inclusive & responsive sys to tackle climate change.Both preparedness & positive policy action r currently lacking, especially for those most vulnerable to its impacts. #ClimatePolicy
As deadly heatwaves grip Pakistan, millions in peri urban areas suffer silently as they remain overlooked by policy and unprepared without protection

Really appreciate 🇵🇰 Govt's move to link both domestic & intl funding with output & performance. Accountability & transparency must b nonnegotiable. Time to hold non-productive departments answerable for utlizating state resources to ensure public money delivers real impact.

Weaponizing water is a highly dangerous precedent that the international community must immediately address.
As rightly pointed out by @hali1189, this "could trigger countless similar conflicts elsewhere in the world."

Why do some lives matter less than others? My article in @etribune explores the chilling reality for transgender victims in Pak & exposes society’s deep-rooted biases. I wrote a few years ago,& sadly,the situation remains unchanged.

#SouthAsian used to have lower risk of cardiovascular diseases in their home countries
However once they settled in a devloped country their risk will increase even more than new country population own risk.
Why?
Why is blood pressure killing South Asians?

Unfortunately,the loophole in law allowed the perpetrators of honour killings.According to the evidence, more thn100women were killed by relatives in Pak this year in the name of so-called“honor",while many more cases go unreported.@ncswpk @mohrpakistan @AyeshaRaza13 @unwomen_pak
When the brother intervened, the accused killed him as well, the SHO said.
