People’s freedom cannot be violated in name of national security: CJISLAMABAD: Chief Justice Tassaduq Hussain Jillani said usurping the freedom of people could not be allowed in the war against terrorism on the pretext of national security and preservation of democracy.
Addressing a full court reference in honour of Justice Khilji Arif, Chief Justice Jillani said human rights could not be ignored at any cost.
The chief justice added that Pakistan was plagued by several wars besides terrorism and sectarianism. He said the country was also waging a war against the abuse of minorities, women and children.
The country’s top judge further said it was our responsibility to stand united for Pakistan.
