The committee formed under the leadership of Kashif Bajir will visit the said villages and gather all the facts in the meeting with the affected family, other members of the community, local journalists and concerned authorities and prepare their report in the light of the facts that have come to the attention of the department. It will be presented to the higher authorities.

The Sindh Human Rights Department has said that holding a Jirga to save convicted criminals is a serious matter. On this matter, Surendra Vilasai said that the court has sentenced the named criminal in the Leelan Meghwad murder case, while the family of the innocent girl who was the victim of cruelty is very poor people. He said that in this case, it is now necessary to see that the victim’s family was not threatened and consent was not given. He further said that the human rights department under its mandate will ensure justice with the blood of the oppressed girl.

Surendra Vilasai said that such jirgas lead to an increase in crime trends against women and the weak in the society, therefore, violation of human rights and law in the name of jirgas cannot be tolerated. The Special Assistant to the Sindh Chief Minister for Human Rights clarified that the Sindh government has an unshakable determination not to be a victim of any expediency on the issue of the rights and protection of the poor and backward classes.
