Musharraf backs review of Hudood Ordinance

Re: Musharraf backs review of Hudood Ordinance

Once a 10 year old girl was tried on Hudood, but the LHRLA fought and acquitted her… This is just one small example of how the law is misused.

Through the efforts of LHRLA a ten year old girl who was being tried under Hudood Ordinance, was finally acquitted after being on trial for four months. The President of LHRLA, Mr. Zia Awan, who represented Shahina, claims the police grossly misuse the Hudood Ordinance, making women helpless victims of prolonged legal battles.
