FAROOQ SATTAR SHIFTED TO ATTOCK FORT AND KEPT IN A DUNGEON UNDER SOLITARY CONFINEMENT

London -- 24 February 2000

According to recent information, Dr Farooq Sattar, Member of MQM Co-ordination Committee, Parliamentary Leader of MQM in the suspended Provincial Assembly of Sindh and former Mayor of Karachi, has been shifted to Attock Fort, (NWFP) North West Frontier Province of Pakistan. This fort was previously used to detain and torture hardened criminals and political opponents of the Government.

Dr Farooq Sattar, who is very ill and suffers from chronic ulcer, is being kept in solitary confinement in a dungeon of 7 square feet. These dungeons were used to imprison hardened criminals and political opponents of the governments to pressurise them to sign pre-written “confessional statements”. Throughout the day he is being incarcerated in this dungeon and is being treated as a hardened criminal. All the facilities, which he is entitled for have been withdrawn.
