What the petition asks

Why it was rejected

This petition has been rejected because it is about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not responsible for.
The UK cannot control the sovereign territory of Pakistan. However you could create a new petition that asks the UK Government to take diplomatic steps to encourage the government of Pakistan to take a particular action, which we may be able to accept.
