Ihtisham a teenager boy was released from lock up of Jamrud Khyber Agency FATA

Ihtisham Mullagori from Jamrud Khyber Agency FATA was released from the lock up of Assistant Political Agent of Jamrud sub division. Ihtisham is a teenager who was detained for last 3 months for the crime of one of his family members. This is the gift of Frontier Crimes Regulations 1901 in which there is a clause called collective responsibility. Under this inhuman clause if one is accused of doing some thing wrong to the state or thinks to do some thing wrong against the state in future then all clan and tribe is arrested. In 2011 FCR has been amended by then President of Pakistan  Asif Ali Zardari and the said clause has been amended considerably but ironically political Administration in FATA still use the clause against people of FATA which is a great injustice with people and constitution also. There has been an amendment that boys under 16 year of age and male members under 65 year of age will not be arrested but clause amendment are still to be implemented by the political Administration. Political Administration of FR Peshawar is also not lagging behind any political Agent or his sub ordinate Assistant Political Agent which is stil;l arresting and teasing old people not less than 80 years. This trend of rights violation is needed to be stopped.
