This is so stupid and I am coming to believe that this is done on purpose. The cases brought against Aurat March are laughably weak. The articles used in FIR are wrong one's (for example, 295 does not even apply to them). These cases go to court, and are expectedly thrown out....creating a precedent in legal system of a judge giving a decision in favor of aurat march. This gives a certain future-proof legal protection to the movement.

It happened last year too and happened this year as well. Pakistanis being taken for a ride by well-trained and sophisticated liberal-secularist NGOs backed often by their foreign ideological trainers

If this is to be done, hopefully it is restricted to those they have video evidence breaking the law. Narrowly focusing on the core group of offenders will allow the court to strengthen its case and differentiate between participants with valid grievances, and those that have crossed the line. Weak cases brought to court indeed weaken any prosecution and in fact strength those in the Aurat March movement that would use it for ill.

The team leading the prosecution shouldn’t make any indictments public until they know they have a rock solid case. They need a “red team” to test the case in a “mock trial“ before the reiling up society like this. For that matter the government needs “red teams” in a lot of departments, especially to help government ministers craft better debate skills, and not lean on emotion.

I hope this is the state doing this not the agenda based traitors part of hybrid war.

I think it is a fair move because both Left and Right wing are harmful for Pakistan.

people are sick of this extremist society they will stand for rights . religion must be separated from politics for good other wise we will keep bleeding .

 

[EasyNow]

The timing of this FIR is quite revealing. This maulvi advocate has bought a weak tit for tat case just to score political points.

When the case is inevitably thrown out they will use this to prove some kind of state favouritism towards 'seculars' and against TLP.

People here asking for strong cases - if they haven't broken the law then of course there will be only weak cases against them.

My guess is this is a deliberate move to silence the voices that said TLP was targeted for protecting but Aurat March lot were left untouched.

So my guess is this was done to sort of counter that narrative.
