12 Year old boy in Police Custody

Free Faizan Bashir Sofi

A local court on Monday sent a minor to the juvenile home for 15 days for “participating in protests against the Indian rule” at Eidgah on Eid-ul-Fitr.
Faizan Bashir Sofi, son of Bashir Ahmad, a resident of Eidgah, Srinagar, was produced by police in the court of Sub Registrar Srinagar, Manzoor Ahmad Zargar.
“The court sent him to juvenile home for 15 days,” Station House

Officer, police station, Safa Kadal, Parvez Ahmad told Kashmir Reader

The FIR in the case has been registered under sections 435, 147 and 149 of Ranbir Penal Code which pertain to mischief by fire or any explosive substance “with the intention to cause damage to any property, rioting, unlawful activities and unlawful assembly,” the police officer said.

He however claimed that Faizan was not arrested by police. “We didn’t arrest him but had asked the family to produce him before the court after he was identified from the videos,” he added.

However, the lawyer who appeared on behalf of Faizan, a 6th standard student, contested police version saying the minor was arrested by police on Sunday.

“Faizan was arrested by police on Sunday and was produced before court today,” advocate Babar Qadri told Kashmir Reader.

“We have moved a bail application but police has not reported back yet,” Qadri added.

We appeal International Human Rights Organizations to intervene in the matter & help rescue the little child from the clutches of these home grown terrorists(read Jammu & Kashmir Police) at work who have sold their Deen-o-Imaan for perks & promotions.

 

Our Organization is willing to arrange seminar shortly for raising voices for all innocent boys that are in police custody. For that you are welcome to forward us suggestions and positive ideas so that we can work together. Hope to hear from you at humanitytrust@hotmail.com

WE NEED DIALOGUE OF LOVE

"I believe all suffering is caused by ignorance. People inflict pain on others in the selfish pursuit of their happiness or satisfaction. Yet true happiness comes from a sense of peace and contentment, which in turn must be achieved through the cultivation of altruism, of love and compassion, and elimination of ignorance, selfishness, and greed."
Dalai Lama

Every war could be stopped by love.

Since September 11^th 2001, the whole world has been united by their hatred and mistrust of the Muslim religion and its followers, people think they are fundamentalists and dangerous, and a threat to the life-style of the west. They believe all Muslims are terrorist bombers in waiting.

These ideas are both wrong and disabling for every single person in the world; it creates unease and tension that is just not necessary.

The people who do go out and commit these horrific, violent and senseless acts in the name of Islam are neither as great in number as the media portrays, and are not real Muslims.

I have personally read the Koran and nowhere in it, does it encourage killings and murders in its name, in fact it tells people to live integrated and peaceful lives, which the majority of Muslims do.

The fact is that good and bad people are living in all corners of the world, and are of all religions.

The good people should not be symbolized for the deeds of bad people. Similarly it is unjust to label a particular community, religion or race anything for the acts of certain people only.

There is a strong need for love to grow especially among people living in East and West.

We are hoping to have workshops in which people from different cultures, communities, nations, races and colors should be invited to have a friendly dialogue with each other. That way a relationship of love will increase and things to improve the world situation can be discussed in a friendly environment.

If there are any organizations that would like to work with us in spreading love, harmony, peace and communication between humans belonging to different castes, religions, cultures and communities are warmly welcomed.

You can give your ideas and suggestions at humanitytrust@hotmail.com we look forward to with you on this project.

Thank you for your time in reading this.

The water Crises in the Thar Parker region of Pakistan

Water is a basic necessity for humans, without water no human can survive for more than a few weeks, yet millions of people across the world don’t have any at all, or if they it’s so dirty and diseased it will eventually kill them, in the West water is so available we take it for granted, and waste it on trivial things like cleaning cars and filling swimming pools, when people are dying without it, it just isn’t fair, the gap between those who have and those who don’t; has never been so great.

People living in poor counties need water for everything, from drinking and washing to stop the spread of diseases and infections, for cooking the little food they have, to watering their animals, to watering their crops so they can eat, without it they will die, in the West we just can’t comprehend that people die from lack of water, but it does happen; every single day.

It is the elixir of life. Without it nothing can survive.

 
A young boy is drinking water from the place where the goat is also drinking. It is not only this young boy but the whole inhabitants of this village drink water the same way. This picture is from a village in Thar region of Pakistan. There is no electricity, no water and no prosperity in the region but still hundreds of thousands of people are surviving with terrible conditions in the area.

According to an estimate a total number of 500 hand pumps are immediately required in the area in order to provide these people with clean water. The cost for placement of 500 hand pumps in the area is estimated to be $10,00,000. However, our team is dedicated to place few at the initial level and with the support of international organizations this target can be achieved in very small period of time. If you are interested in coordinating with us then please write us an email at humanitytrust@hotmail.com

Water Crises in Thar Parker Pakistan

Water is the basic necessity for humans. Without water no human can survive. Another aspect is that clean water is necessary for human health. With poor quality of water the health of humans and communities get affected badly. However sad aspect is that there are areas in Pakistan where millions of people don't have access to clean water. The poverty level is so high that people are bound to drink the same water as the animals do.. Kindly see this picture.

Tips of prevention from AIDS

HOW TO PROTECT YOURSELF

It is incredibly rare for HIV to be transmitted in a household setting. In a very few cases, HIV has been transmitted when there was unprotected contact between infected blood and broken skin or mucous membranes.
To prevent even such rare occurrences, you should take the following precautions when caring for someone living with HIV:

1) Wear gloves if you are going to have contact with blood or other body fluids that could possibly contain visible blood, such as urine, feces, or vomit.
2) Cover cuts, sores, or breaks in the skin with bandages. This applies to both you and the person living with HIV/AIDS.

3) Wash your hands and other parts of your body immediately after contact with blood or other body fluids. Disinfect surfaces soiled with blood.
4) Avoid practices that increase the likelihood of blood contact, such as sharing of razors and toothbrushes.
5) Use needles and other sharp instruments only when medically necessary and handle them according to recommendations for healthcare settings. (Do not put caps back on needles by hand or remove needles from syringes. Dispose of needles in puncture-proof containers out of the reach of children and visitors.)

Stop Child Suicide

ONE OF THE MAJOR ISSUE OF OUR YOUTH . . . On 4th of August 2012 Results of  9th Grade Matriculation were announced by the Board of Secondary and Intermediate Education Lahore, Pakistan . . . and GUESS WHAT . . only in one major hospital of Lahore, 5 students (less then 16 years of age) brought as they attempted Suicide . . . Because they could not pass the exams . . . and a 15 years old girl . . . DIED infront of her loved ones . . . There MUST be hundreds of other CASES . . . BUT . . . Can we Do Anything? Funeral Prayer of a Child is offered in the picture below that committed suicide when his teacher brutally hit him..

 

 

 

There have been similar cases reported before and the way things are going there will be more suicides around the world by the youth. That way we lose the most important asset of the world. Children under the age of 18 years have low level of awareness and they commit suicides for different reasons. It is best if we can do anything for stopping suicide at those levels.

We have plans to run awareness campaigns in communities we know by different ways especially through workshops and seminars. Please join us in any manner you wish to support our cause. For more do contact us at humanitytrust@hotmail.com

Computer Training Session for Girls

Pakistan is a poor country with poor literacy rate especially among women. The country has high ratio of domestic violance as the society is male oriented. There are many women that are financially abused by their parents, brothers and husbands because they don't have any skills at hand and they are not allowed to work outside by standing shoulder to shoulder with men.

We are planning to organize free computer training sessions for poor girls in villages as well as in cities of Pakistan so that they can stand on their own feet by working online from their homes. In these training sessions we will teach the girls how to use Microsoft Office, Microsoft windows and the internet. For more you can always guide us at humanitytrust@hotmail.com

We are looking forward to all kind of support by you by any means in this crutial time period so that adequate relief is given to the women in time.

EDUCATION IS A FUNDMENDAL RIGHT OF EVERY GIRL:

According to the Constitution of Islamic Republic of Pakistan, which was agreed in 1973, education is a basic right every child should receive.However, the situation is worse than it was ever been in Pakistan, as Government is not offering free education anywhere in Pakistan, which they should be. The rich can afford to send their children to school, whereas the poor have to send their children out to work to help their families, most of who are living way below the poverty line, this is not an equal system, and education is a right-not a privilege.

When it comes to female education in Pakistan, it has spiraled way out of control. There are less than 1% female graduates in Pakistan. In many villages and cities all over Pakistan parents do not allow their daughters to study, at all, the believe is somehow women are worthless compared to men. One reason is the lack of infrastructure, poor environments for girls to study; the mentality of government is not helping the situation either. The ultimate sufferers in this terrible lack of education are the women and society at large.

If every girl gets a chance to read and write then it might help end many social problems including… poverty, the energy crises, unemployment, illiteracy, terrorism and extremism from Pakistan.The reason is that positive thinking will develop among women and ultimately the entire society will be benefitted by it.

The team of Humanity Trust is working to open up schools for girls in all the areas of Pakistan they are needed, at the moment we have half the resources to run schools in the villages of Chontara (Rawalpindi), Paniola (Kashmir), Shah Allah Ditta (Islamabad), Jhangi Sayedan (Islamabad) and Tarnol (Islamabad).

We are also willing to run schools in the underprivileged areas of Sindh, Baluchistan and KPK. We have teams of people willing to work across Pakistan.

Any organizations who feel they can help us in this regard please contact us at humanitytrust@hotmail.com

All help and support will be greatly appreciated, thank you for your time in reading this.

Education for every girl

According to the provisions of Constitution of Islamic Republic of Pakistan 1973, education is the right of every children. However, the scenario is worse in Pakistan as Government is not offering free education in Pakistan anywhere. The rich study and the poor make their children earn their own livelihood from the very basic ages.

When it comes to female education the scenario is awful in Pakistan. There are less than 1% female graduates in Pakistan. In many villages and cities of Pakistan parents do not allow their daughters to study. The reason is the lack of infrastructure, poor environment of schools for girls and poor infrastructure at many places. The ultimate sufferer in this scenario are the women and society at large at the end.

If every girl gets a chance to read and write then that might end up poverty, energy crises, unemployment, illiteracy, terrorism and extremism from Pakistan. The reason is that a positive thinking will develop among women and ultimately the whole society will be effected by it.

The team of Humanity Trust is willing to open up schools for girls in all the backward areas of Pakistan. For now we have half the resources to run schools in the villages of Chontara (Rawalpindi), Paniola (Kashmir), Shah Allah Ditta (Islamabad), Jhangi Sayedan (Islamabad) and Tarnol (Islamabad).

Thousands of mothers are suffering like that

It is story of a mother, she is pleading for help and there is no one to help her.. Her daughter was in Darul Aman.. Darul Aman is another name for shelter home where people go in certain circumstances especially when they have fears of death living at their homes. A police officer with the rank of Assistant Sub Inspector has abducted her daughter from Darul Aman. She was never found ever after. According to her the wife of Tariq Mahmood ASI was in the business of traficking women. That means there are chances of her daughter being sold to someone by that Police Officer and his wife. This women has the play card having all the story written over it. She is demanding justice and recovery of her daughter from the Chief Justice of Pakistan.

It is not only the story of this old mother. This story exists in different parts of Pakistan. There is no justice for the poor and hundreds of girls are abducted every day from different villages and cities which are never found.

We the team of Humanity Assistance & Relief Trust is willing to raise awareness on this issue. We are also willing to conduct survey in the police stations, Jails, hospitals, Darul Amans and at all other places for the missing girls. We are also concerned and willing to take action against the corrupt people in power supporting people like Police Officer ASI Tariq Mahmood. Only that way we can save many girls from losing their liberty.

There are many mentally sick people living in this world. They see children with evil eyes and they abuse them physically. It is not only men that abuse children rather there are evil women also doing that in all corners of the world.

Child sexual abuse exists in all villages and cities of Pakistan. There are stories in which people in blood relations are found doing that. We can never stop child sexual abuse but we can raise awareness over this issue in order to prevent it to a large scale. For that we have made a commitment to ourselves that we will launch series of workshops on Child sexual abuse in different cities and villages of Pakistan.

Respect is what honorable people give

One of the basic ways of spending a respectful life is by giving respect to others. The people that respect others deserve respect and they get it. On the other hand the people with awkward behavior towards others get the same in return.

One of the primary duties of men is to respect existence of women. That means women should be treated on equal footings with men. They should not be treated as inferior beings. Women should be treated and respected with care. Without women this world is nothing and there is no color in life.

We are planning to organize series of workshops on women rights in Pakistan soon. If you are a NGO you are welcome to join hands with us. You can contact us at humanitytrust@hotmail.com for suggestions and discussions on this workshop. Looking forward to hear from you.

THE GENOCIDE IN BURMA:

Within the last month or so, there have been reports of more than 25,000 Muslims slaughtered in Burma, in an act of total genocide against the Muslim communities living there.

The total population of Burma is thought to be around 75 Million People, the majority are Buddhist and a very peaceful  people, the total Muslim population is only around 0.7 million, a very small minority.

The majority of Muslims in Burma are living in the Arakan Province.

The government their controls all areas of peoples life’s, and there is a lack of even the most basic fundamental and human rights, not a lot is known about what is exactly going on in the region as the state has banned mobile photos and the internet, so it is hard for information to get out of the country, and nothing that does come out can be verified.

The atrocities against Muslims in Burma have been going on since the Army came into power in 1962.

The current crisis in Burma began on the 3rd of June 2012, when 11 Muslims were murdered in the capital city of Rangoon; they were passengers on a bus which was stopped by the Burmese Army and all the Muslims onboard were slaughtered by the controlling Buddhist Army.

After the massacre people in the Arakan province started protesting  peacefully. The military opened fire on the people there, in an obscene act of mass murder.

After the killings many people tried to migrate across the border to Bangladesh but the Bangladesh Army opened fire in the similar manner also murdering many people, it is believed they did it so that they didn’t have to give asylum to anybody.

It is thought that very similar things have happened when the Muslims of Burma tried to migrate to India.

The international media is not covering this event. The main reason is that the present Burmese government is sponsored and protected by the west. The Muslim Governments of third world countries are silent for the same reasons. The point is that many people are being killed in Burma everyday and the world is silent to appease the west. The crisis hasn’t been covered much but there are some pictures available over various websites. Our team wants to go to Burma to provide food, shelter and media coverage of the genocide that is in progress there, but we can’t do it without the generosity of the public, please help us in any way you can, so we can give the much need assistance to the people in desperate need, thanks for your time.

How to deal with Genocide in Burma?

In last month or so, there are more than 25,000 Muslims slaughtered in Burma. The total population of Burma is 7.5 crore which makes around 75 Million People. Among them majority are Budhist and the total Muslim population is around 0.7 million only.

The majority of the muslims in Burma are living in Arakan Province. There are no fundamental rights of people in that province. Even the people are not allowed to use cell phones in that province. The atrocities against Muslims in Burma are since 1962 when Army came into power.

The current crises in Burma Started on 3rd of June 2012 when 11 Muslims were murdered in the capital city of Rangoon. They were passengers in a bus which was stopped by Burmese Army and all the Muslims were slaughtered by the Budhist Army. On that the people in the Arakan province protested peacefully. The military opened fire on the mobs when they were protesting. On that people tried to migrate to Bangladesh as this province is bordered with it but the Bangladesh Army opened fire in the similar manner so that they don't have to give asylum to any human. Similar case happened when Muslims of Burma tried to migrate to India.

The international media is not covering this event. The main reason is that the Burmese present government is sponsored and protected by the west. The Muslim Governments of third world countries are silent for the same reasons. The point is that the humans are killed in Burma everyday and the world is silent to appease the west. The incident is not covered well but there are some pictures available over various websites. Our team is willing to go to Burma for providing food, shelter and media coverage to the genocide.

Workshop against Misogynists

Misogynists are people that hate women for their own reasons. Sometimes it is the brought up of men that makes them misogynists or sometimes its an abnormality of their minds. There is no religion or law in the world that allow men to hit women. Pouring acid, burning a girl, ironing her body and confining her for long times is out of question. However people in most male oriented societies are not aware of all that.

 

We are planning to organize a workshop in Islamabad in which we are planning to invite Judges, Lawyers, Doctors, People from the Government and people from the civil society. That workshop will highlight the problems faced by women because of misogynists and the possible solutions to such problems. The workshop will also focus on the need of new special law to be enacted in this respect.

We welcome all organizations that are working against misogynists to support us in arranging this workshop. Your suggestions are welcome and you can contact us on humanitytrust@hotmail.com for further understanding regarding this workshop. Hope to hear from you..

Project to resolve Energy Crises in Pakistan

Pakistan is a wonderful land with having natural rivers that can be best used for electricity production. Researches have shown that the cheapest mean of producing electricity is by making it from water. For that a grid station is basically built. The cost of building a grid station is high because it generally requires the production of dam, spilways along with placement of turbines for the production of electricity on them.

Pakistan has energy crises all over the country for various reasons. There is electricity load shedding for around 10-15 hours in the villages of Pakistan and 6-8 hours in the main cities including the capital. A fact is that there is no dam built in Pakistan for nearly about 50 years. That is one of the reasons of electricity shortage in Pakistan. At the moment 60% electricity production of Pakistan is based on dams and 40% on the private grid stations that work on furnace oil. There is a strong requirement of new dams or minor projects that should be made on emergency bases so that the crises is dealt properly.

One of the successful areas in terms of electricity production in Pakistan is the province of Gilgit Baltistan. There is a good system of electricity built in the province by Agha Khan foundation with the help of international agencies. Almost whole of the province has no electricity shortage as it is running on small turbines. There are fast flowing rivers in the province that are great for electricity production when turbines are placed on them. Similarly in several areas there are natural streams and reservoirs are made at the end of streams. Similarly there is are electricity production rooms that play their role in such areas.

Energy crises can end up in Pakistan easily if a similar strategy is adopted in the other provinces. The Kabul river flows through half of the province of KPK which can be used for electricity production in the similar manner. Similarly Indus, Jhelum, Chanab, Ravi and Sutlej are five main rivers that flow through the provinces of Sindh and Punjab. Apart from that there are many small rivers that flow through the province of Baluchistan and in the other parts of country. There can be many small turbines built on these rivers in order to deal with the energy crises easily.

The team of HART is willing to work on this project. We have engineers, graduates and experienced professionals in our team that can carry on any kind of major and minor project in this respect. The only problems we face in this respect is the funding for the project. For suggestions, sponsorships and ideas regarding this project you can write us at humanitytrust@hotmail.com so that we can mutually be part of resolving energy crises issue in Pakistan for the prosperity of humanity.

Workshop on the Moral Training of Police

The Police of Pakistan is one of the worst ones in the world. It doesn't have manners to behave with the citizens in the positive manner. The police in Pakistan usually consists of two classes of work force. One is the officer class while the other is the soldier class. The Officer class consists of mainly officers from the Central Superior Services and they are very well behaving for the same reasons. The soldier class comes in direct coordination with the general public. The soldier class mainly consists of people that are low educated and having no ethics. They take bribery for making any frivolous kind of case against innocent citizens including women and children.

We aim at bringing the civil society as well as policemen in a single workshop so that they can learn to interact with each other in a decent manner. This workshop is open for suggestions and sponsorships at the moment. For more do consult us at humanitytrust@hotmail.com

Free Legal Aid for Juveniles

There is a Juveniles Justice System prevailing in the law books of Pakistan. However practically its not well implemented by the courts of law. There are lots of children that are facing trials and imprisonments in the jails of Pakistan for minor offenses. Bad aspect is that there are children that are accused of offenses and they are in the jails neither acquitted nor convicted.

Children are future of any nation. When it comes to Pakistan there are thousands of children of Pakistan that are imprisoned in jails. The nature of Pakistani jails is such that the people living in them turn habitual offenders in life. The future of Pakistan is at stake as the children present in jails are having bad influence. They are not going to schools, they are not having a healthy lifestyle and what they are learning is from the surrounding of criminals in jails.

We have launched this project in order to secure the future of Pakistan. We aim at bringing these children out of jails and giving them the best possible education so that they can become role models for the society. The organizations that are willing to work with us in any manner in this project should contact us at humanitytrust@hotmail.com so that we can join hands together in this battle..
