How Abduction and Torture is being institutionalised in Pakistan. On 8th October Advocate Intezar Hussain Panjhuta was abducted. He is one of Imran Khan's main lawyers in his ongoing legal battles. On 29th Oct Attorney General (the biggest law officer of the Country) told Islamabad High Court that he will give "good news" in the case of missing Advocate Intezar Hussain Panjhuta in 48 hours. On 1st Nov (Friday) the case was heard again and the Attorney General guaranteed recovery of the missing Advocate within 24 hours. On 3rd Nov i.e. Saturday Night Advocate Intezar Hussain is allegedly recovered by Police in a car with his hands and legs tied with the Police claiming that he was kidnapped for ransom and the kidnappers ran away when intercepted by Police. The clearly weakened and traumatized Advocate plays along agreeing that he was kidnapped for ransom. So was the Attorney General in touch with the Kidnappers or were the Kidnappers such fans of the Attorney General that they forgot about their ransom and released the missing Advocate out of respect for AG's 24hr commitment to the Court? Stop taking 240 million citizens for fools and don't embarrass yourself further with these ill scripted dramas. It is not just shameful but criminal to what extent the office of the Attorney General and Punjab Police have been used to cover the Stare Enforced disappearance of Advocate Intezar Hussain Panjhuta. But this still isn't the most cruel element of our system. The biggest cruelty is that our Judges put the onus of truth and evidence on the person who was abducted. It will now be Advocate Intezar's burden to claim and prove that he was abducted by Security Agencies regardless of how traumatized he is and how many threats he continues to face otherwise the Courts will also seek an excuse to sweep the dirty mess under the carpet.
