All too often the law in Pakistan interacts with the country's socio-cultural and religious norms. This together with the War on Terror, has led to the increased use of the death penalty, enforced disappearances, the use of Special Criminal Courts, 'honor crimes' and minority rights violations in a way that jeopardizes human rights.
