Stop forced religion conversions of Christians in Pakistan.

Rejected 15 signatures

What the petition asks

A 13-year-old Christian girl was kidnapped in Pakistan and forced to marry a 44-year-old man who made her convert to Islam.

We want the UK Government to have their involvement in supporting the Christian minorities in Pakistan to get justice.
It is a very sensitive matter for Pakistani Christians but sadly it is all falling on the deaf ears of the politicians and the authorities.

It is sad as the Pakistani police and courts have failed to respect their laws, as well international standards, which are continuing to be ignored especially in forced conversion and forced marriage cases even in the higher courts.

We want the UK Government to play their part in protecting the human right of all minorities in Pakistan.

Why it was rejected

It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.

The enforcement of laws in Pakistan are the responsibly of the police and courts of Pakistan, not the UK Government or Parliament.
