PML-N hails AI statement, US report on Pakistan
LONDON, March 7: The PML-N has welcomed the statement of Amnesty International, calling on the US administration not to turn a blind eye to human rights abuses by the military government in Pakistan.In a statement issued here on Wednesday, a spokesman for former prime minister Nawaz Sharif said the report of the US State Department had, for the first time, placed restrictions on citizens’ right to change their government at the top of the regime’s long list of violations of human rights and added that ending violations of this right through democratic means was also a central objective of the PML-N.
He said the forthcoming multy-party conference being hosted by the PML-N in London on March 24 and 25 would also take up the issue of how to end the regime’s restrictions on this right of the citizens.
