PAK 2/2015 19/03/2015 Pakistan JUA Summary executions; Torture; Alleged torture and imminent execution of a Pakistani national who was a minor at the time of his conviction. According to the information received, Mr. Shafqat Hussain, who is currently detained in Karachi Central Prison, is scheduled to be executed on 19 March 2015. Mr. Hussain was reportedly 14 years old at the time of his trial and was convicted based on a forced confession he made after being subjected to torture for nine days by the police. He was sentenced to death for kidnapping and involuntary manslaughter. In the evening of 18 March 2015, the authorities announced a stay of execution. They also announced an inquiry into his age at the time of his conviction, and on the alleged torture he suffered during his interrogation. Grave concern is expressed at the imminent execution of Mr. Hussain, who reportedly was a minor at the time of the alleged crime, which may be in contravention of international human rights law, especially the stringent respect of due process and fair trial guarantees in cases where the death penalty may be imposed and the prohibition of torture and ill treatment.
