As a high-level European Union monitoring mission is expected to visit Pakistan on November 24, hundreds are in jail in the country on charges of blaspheming Islam.

Pakistan: Inside a graveyard for victims of ‘honor killings’

In Pakistan, hundreds of women are killed every year after being accused of “dishonoring” their families.

Fattu Shah is a remote village in the north of Pakistan’s Sindh province. The drive from the nearest city, Ghotki, takes more than an hour. The road narrows as it cuts through cotton fields and winds around clay-brick houses scattered across endless stretches of farmland.

It’s a journey Aisha Dharejo has made countless times. For the past 15 years she has been researching what locals call “the graveyard for dishonored women.”

“Each grave reveals the story of a woman that has been silenced,” Dharejo told DW.

Dissidents Flee Pakistan Only To Be Targeted in the West

Pakistan is one of the world’s most repressive regimes, as it systematically targets dissidents—critics as well as members of ethnic and religious minorities. Such targeting occurs in various ways, including through abductions, arrests, torture, and murders. As a result, many critics flee the country and seek asylum elsewhere, hoping for a freer and safer life. Yet, even in exile, they are targeted and persecuted by Pakistan’s Intelligence Services (ISI).

A Day in the Life of a Christian – Under Pakistan’s Blasphemy Laws

Muslims burn churches in Pakistan

When, exactly, will the protests in the West begin?

In Pakistan, blasphemy laws carry a death sentence. These notorious statutes are often used abusively for settling personal scores, making personal gains or for satisfying grudges that one neighbor may have against another.

The country’s blasphemy laws are also used to target minority groups, and Christians are disproportionately affected. Indeed, roughly a quarter of all blasphemy accusations target Christians. Business rivals accuse Christian men of blasphemy as a means of destroying their business and reputation.

Why Pakistani airline attendants keep ‘vanishing’ in Toronto

The phrase “Pakistan Zindabad” — Urdu for “long live Pakistan” — is a patriotic expression closely linked to the country’s independence from British-ruled India.

But the title of the 2013 film “Zinda Bhaag,” which rhymes with the nationalistic slogan, may better reflect the mindset of many Pakistanis today.

Church Burnings In Pakistan Have Far To Go To Rival Trudeau’s Anti-Christian Pogrom

Anti-Christian Acts Put Pakistan on Fire

The province of Punjab in Pakistan has been in the grip of a wave of anti-Christian persecution of rare violence over the last few days.

The violence began on August 16th, following an accusation of blasphemy against a Christian family, who were accused of desecrating the Quran by tearing out pages and insulting the prophet. They strike all Christian denominations, without distinction, and have forced thousands of Christians—around 2,000—to flee to escape the destruction of their property and homes. So far, no deaths have been reported, but many churches have been burnt down and destroyed. According to various journalistic sources, reliable numbers are hard to come by, but they range between 15 and 50.
