Early tomorrow morning, a Pakistani man called Shafqat Hussain is due to be executed for murder. His lawyers say he was still a child when he was prosecuted and that his conviction was based on a confession which was extracted from him after he was tortured. UN officials and human rights activists are calling on the Pakistani government to stop execution, saying to go ahead without properly investigating these allegations would be 鈥渦tterly unacceptable and in flagrant contravention of Pakistan鈥檚 national and international obligations鈥�. After the Peshawar school attacks last year, Pakistan partially lifted a moratorium on the death penalty for those convicted of terror offences and this was extended to cover all capital cases in March this year. Sarah Belal is Shafqat Hussain's lawyer and Executive Director of 鈥楾he Justice Project, Pakistan鈥� a non-profit law firm which represents Pakistanis facing the death penalty, victims of torture and those detained in the War on Terror.
