Nadia Gabol, the CM's coordinator for Human Rights, has said that the practice of holding jirgas to settle disputes has been strictly prohibited in Sindh and the provincial human rights department would do all in its power to curb the practice.
In a statement on Friday, she hailed the judiciary's role in outlawing such illegal tribal assemblies by imposing a ban on jirgas in April 2004. She said several people, including women, were rescued by the directorate of human rights after being declared 'kari' by jirgas.
