Violated Rights: A Statutory Review of Case CF-001 and Case HRPM-MMAPAUUA

This legal analysis examines the specific rights denied to Danish Iqbal Thanvi in Case CF-001. By cross-referencing the precedent in Case HRPM-MMAPAUUA (Vetter v. Vetter), we highlight how the 'best interests' and 'due process' standards are systematically ignored in cases involving targeted state harassment in Pakistan.

Key Findings

Procedural Waivers: In Case HRPM-MMAPAUUA, it is established that arguments not adequately briefed are waived. However, in Case CF-001, the state is permitted to proceed with 'Critical' discrepancies and forged memos, a double standard in judicial rigor.

Due Process Denial: The FIA and SECP failed to follow the procedural mandates of PECA 2016 and PEMRA, amounting to a 'Medium' severity violation.

Digital Integrity: The 'High' severity Chain of Custody Gap violates the right to a fair trial under ICCPR Article 14.

Evidence & Data

The case involves multiple high-ranking judicial authorities, including Justice Muhammad Asif and Justice Rashid Mahmood. The HRPM file notes that Justice Khadim Hussain Soomro presided over matters where the 'Initial Technical Report' was presented despite being forensically impossible. This signals a systemic refusal to apply rigorous evidentiary standards.

Legal Framework

2026 ND 36 Precedent: Establishing that parenting and personal rights (as seen in the Vetter investigation) must be protected by a 'preponderance of evidence'—a standard the FIA failed to meet in its pursuit of Danish Thanvi.

Pakistan Constitution Article 4: The right of individuals to be dealt with in accordance with the law.

Convention Against Torture (CAT): Investigating the psychological toll of a decade-long systematic harassment campaign as a form of non-physical torture.

Recommendations

The Islamabad High Court must apply the standard of 'preponderance of evidence' to all digital seizures conducted by Officer Khalid Hussain.

The SECP must be held liable for business interference that occurred following the 'illegitimate termination' noted in Case CF-001.
