lynching of Mashal Khan in Mardan University

[Shazia Shaheen]

Dear all IHI members and other alliances, networks too.

 

I am approaching all of you to consult if we can organize a protest against the barbaric attack and lynching of Mashal Khan, a young student in Mardan University. We should demand justice for his killing and register our strong condemnation over this lawlessness in public sector universities. I am sharing the poem he posted on time line of his face book page.

DRAFT STATEMENT

Civil Society Demands Answers re. Lahore and Islamabad Outrage

Statement, 28 March 2016

 

Human rights defenders, peace activists, civil society individuals, organizations, networks, alliances, platforms and groups countrywide are outraged at the events unfolding on Easter Sunday and Monday, simultaneously in Lahore and Islamabad.

 

We stand in solidarity with our bereaved, grieving Christian compatriots who were celebrating Easter at Gulshan-e-Iqbal park in Lahore, when the Taliban (JaA, a breakaway faction of TTP) struck with meticulous planning and organization.

 

Instead of simply expressing our outrage, shock, grief and solidarity with the victims, the injured and the survivors – which we do most sincerely – we now wish to go a step further, regarding the Lahore carnage and the mullahs’ ongoing dharna in Islamabad.

 

It is no coincidence that militant terrorists carried out a suicide mission in Lahore at precisely the same time as religio-political extremists were rampaging down Islamabad’s most sensitive, most protected, most “secure” Red Zone, threatening the very foundations of the State.  They are still encamped there, making outrageous demands, enjoying the government’s familiar appeasement policy, strategy and tactics.

 

Civil society has been and remains inherently peaceful, both in our philosophy and our modus operandi – unlike terrorists and militant extremists.  They are openly and violently anti-state, anti-democracy, anti-Constitution and anti-humanity and are permitted to operate with impunity.

 

Since our longstanding demands and recommendations for dealing with extremism, terrorism, sectarianism and jihadism are not being met, we now demand answers from the so-called “government in power” (sic) to our legitimate questions:

 

1.    Where does the post-APS/Peshawar National Action Plan (NAP) stand today?

2.    Where is the NACTA?

3.    Where is the NISP?

4.    Where is the government’s post-APS, post-Baacha Khan University resolve to stamp out extremism across the board?

5.    Where is the action against hate speech and instigation to violence found in school curricula, madrassas, mosques, sectarian literature, tableeghi/jihadi materials?

6.    Where is the January 2015 promise to carry out even-handed operations in all provinces/areas, including all regions of Punjab – the hotbed of extremist exports?

7.    Where is the media’s self-regulation on these issues? And PEMRA’s monitoring role?

8.  Why has there been such a colossal failure of intelligence gathering, sharing and coordination?

9.    Why is the Army making crucial decisions of National Policy and initiating action too?

10. Where is the elected “Government”? Why are no heads rolling? Is it time to go back to the people to obtain a fresh electoral mandate? Is it time to stop the appeasement policy and finally put one’s money and resources where one’s mouth is?

 

We demand answers to these and many other burning questions of committed, but grieving and suffering Pakistanis, who are fed up of being fed lies and platitudes.

Dear Friends,

 

It is humbly suggested that we should organize a demonstration with a clear strategy. Organizing a demonstrations on a short notice may not encourage many people to join. Mobile phones and internet connections are not functioning in all the areas of the federal capital.

 

We think we should organize a demonstration tomorrow with a written statement in hand.

 

We would also request the seniors and experienced members like Tahira Apa, and Dr. Farzana to draft a strong statement on behalf of all the Networks. We can take endorsements from members on the statement and share with media afterwards.  

 

Regards

Rabeea Hadi & Saliha

[Dr. Farzana Bari]

Various Groups have given protest call today at different times (Student Welfare Society, AWP, IMT, Struggle etc). I have been coordinating with them to gather at the same time that is agreed now as 5:00 pm. I suggest WAF should also change time from 5:30 to 5:00 pm. It is better that we all gather at the same time in a collective platform.

I think this is more logical to stand united against this barbarism. Let us all meet at 5:00 pm Infront of National Press Club, Islamabad. IHI, WAF, AWP EVAWG, CRM and all other groups can protest jointly for a common cause.
