Months after it acquitted the convicts in the Daniel Pearl murder case, the Sindh High Court declared the detention orders of the terrorists ‘null and void’.
In April, Sindh HC bench had commuted death sentence of British-born al Qaeda leader Ahmed Omar Saeed Sheikh, main accused Daniel Pearl abduction and murder case, to 7 years in prison.
The Sindh High Court recently overturned the conviction of mastermind Omar Saeed Sheikh and his three co-conspirators for the journalist’s kidnapping and murder.
Coronavirus pandemic, world distracted by Afghan peace deal and weak case in the murder of Daniel Pearl opened a window to acquit Omar Sheikh. But the US noticed.
The world watched aghast as police armed with tasers, tear-gas masks—and in one case backed up by snipers—arrested hundreds of pro-Palestinian protesters at universities across the United States.
The Asian Development Outlook 2024 report suggests that policymakers in the region should monitor a number of risks. These include escalating conflicts and geopolitical tensions.
Germany’s erstwhile Christian Democratic Union govt, led by Angela Merkel, prevented sale of small arms to police forces in states they perceived had ‘bad human rights record’.
A theme has not yet emerged for BJP & people see lack of a contest, which makes it unexciting. For all these reasons, 2024 is turning out to be an unexpectedly theme-less election.
Modi outreach to farmers a step forward. It will be good if talks resume in a spirit of sincerity.
If there is no opposition it cannot be called a reform.
Reforms basically aim at providing level playing field so obviously some are going to be deprived of monopoly and disproportionate gains cornered over years, and the resistance is to be expected.
It is the skill of the ruling dispensation to counter and overcome it.
The reforms of the early 90s were easier to implement because the monopolies were of the government and the disproportionate gains were going to the cronies only which were taken away by the government so the question of opposition did not arise.
Modi’s outreach to the protesting farmers? ThePrint really does believe that’s what it was? One can be commended to be optimistic in all scenarios but then it’s good to recall that 6 years have passed since 2014. When was the last time you saw, and which actually was, a real outreach to any troubled section of the society raising a voice against govt action, from his highness?
Attitudes are hardening. About 45 farmers protesting in this frigid weather have lost their lives. After a month, the numbers are swelling, now with a contingent from Maharashtra. Perhaps the suggestion made by the honourable CJI offers a graceful way out of the deadlock.
Delhi Police continues to surpass itself. Unworthy of the average citizen’s trust. The attack on JNU, Komal Sharma, Jama Millia, the biased investigation into the riots, not acting on inflammatory speeches made in their presence, the pyrrhic images of Delhi they presented to President Trump as he feasted at Rashtrapati Bhavan, it will take them a long time to live it down. There must be times when CM Arvind Kejriwal feels relieved they do not report to him. Unclear what LG makes of their conduct.
