The Human Rights Commission of Pakistan criticized the
government as it released its annual report for 2010 on Thursday.
The report provides the year’s statistics derived largely
from media accounts. It underscores the poor security in a nation wracked by a
Taleban insurgency.
The report also highlights violence against religious
minorities, including attacks that killed 99 members of a particular sect. It
notes that security agencies often violate citizens’ rights, such as through
extra-judicial killings.
Commission officials say political parties must work
together to improve human rights instead of playing power games.
