Hina Jilani Quotations

It's a perverted society in many ways. We have reports that such marriages are becoming increasingly common, and they will stop only if the law is applied.

The possibility of preventative detention raises serious concern that such detention may be tantamount to derogation of the country's human rights obligations under international law.

Until the human rights of those affected can be guaranteed we recommend that the construction of the dam is halted.

It is used and misused to spread fear and terror. It's a tool to be used against anyone you are in conflict with.

There needs to be greater awareness on a wider level of the rights of women and children and also punishment for those who violate laws by selling their children. The impunity available to them has aggravated the situation.

We are concerned about the situation, and there is a need to protect women's right to property. They and the children cannot safeguard it themselves.
