Reports about killing of Kohistan women baseless: Iftikhar
2012-06-04
[Dawn] Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa
... formerly NWFP, still Terrorism Central...
 Information Minister Mian Iftikhar Hussain on Sunday termed a news telecast by private news channels regarding killing of four women of Kohistan
...a backwoods district of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa distinguished by being even more rustic than is the norm among the local Pashtuns....
 totally wrong and baseless.

The Information Minister said that he had talked to the DCO Kohistan, the DIG Hazara and Home Secretary who had termed the reports about the incident baseless.

However,
corruption finds a dozen alibis for its evil deeds...
 he said that the DCO Kohistan had been directed to reinvestigate the reports and send an investigation team to the area to further probe the matter.

He urged the media to confirm news from the authorities concerned before releasing or telecasting them.

#1  Compare wid DAILY TIMES.PK > [Pakistan] FORCED MARRIAGE REPLACE RAPE AS WORST CRIME AGZ WOMEN.

The sad part is that many Pak Politicos + Groups, despite recognizing the many many serious or violent abuses that occur agz women, are themselves not willing to change or reform anything due to the tenets/premises of Sharia.

SHARIA = ISLAMIC LAW, + PRESERVATION OF TRADITIONAL FAMILY INSTITUTIONS, ETC. MATTERS MORE THAN PERSONAL SAFETY.

IOW, the abuse + violence agz women will continue, + perpetrators will continue to go [mostly] unpunished or even not arrested. Iff anything, the Fed-Local Govts will help the Perps escape any kind of litigation, punishment, or public-media association wid abusive or violent acts.
