Daily Times
Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) Patron-in-Chief Bilawal Bhutto Zardari has strongly condemned the murder of Dalit girl Kaku Kolhi in Shadi Pali on the even of World Human Rights Day to be observed on Tuesday.
He reiterated his party’s commitment to protect the human rights of every citizen of the country without any exclusion. Expressing sympathies with Kaku’s family, Bilawal asked Sindh government to take special interest and follow the investigations to ensure the culprits do not slip off the hook. Nothing is more important than basic human rights in any democratic and civilised society, the PPP patron said, according to a release from Bilawal House. He said that safeguarding the basic rights of the masses has been the founding principle of PPP; led by Shaheed Zulfikar Ali Bhutto and vigorously pursued by Shaheed Mohtarma Benazir Bhutto. In the course of valiant struggle for protecting human rights in the country, they both sacrificed their lives, he said. He exclaimed that basic human rights were not any kind of concession, privilege or a favour, and urged the Federal government to adopt concrete steps to curb violations. agencies
