| Pakistan rejects EU concerns over executions: FO |
| 2015-06-13 |
| [DAWN] Pakistain has rejected the European Union ...the successor to the Holy Roman Empire, only without the Hapsburgs and the nifty uniforms and the dancing... 's (EU) concerns over the death penalty and said Pakistain is not violating international laws, the Foreign Office said on Friday. "Only such convicts are being hanged who are involved in heinous crimes," said FO front man Qazi Khalilullah during a news briefing in Islamabad. The awarding of death sentences comes under international laws and it is Pakistain's internal affair, the spokesperson added. Yesterday, the EU had expressed concern ...meaning the brow was mildly wrinkled, the eyebrows drawn slightly together, and a thoughtful expression assumed, not that anything was actually done or indeed that any thought was actually expended... over increasing executions in Pakistain and demanded of the government to reinstate the moratorium on death penalty and fully respect all of its international obligations. |
