"Reform or Repression? Post-Coup Abuses in Pakistan"
Human Rights Watch, USA
Supplied note:
"Human Rights Watch today accused Pakistan's military rulers of
committing widespread abuses in the name of political "reform," and
called on General Pervez Musharraf to immediately return the country
to constitutional rule.
In the twenty-page report, 'Reform or Repression? Post-Coup Abuses in
Pakistan,' (available online at:
http://www.hrw.org/reports/2000/pakistan/) Human Rights Watch said the
Musharraf government had detained opponents and former officials
without charge, removed indepedent judges from the higher courts,
banned public rallies and demonstrations, and rendered political
parties all but powerless."
