Bill to destroy morality: Fazal

ISLAMABAD—Mutahida Majlis-e-Amal (MMA) has opposed the Women Protection Bill (WPB) presented in the National Assembly Wednesday and feared that the presented bill is an attempt to make Pakistan, a Free Sex Zone.
Opposition leader in the National Assembly, Maulana Fazal-ur-Rehman has said that the draft of the bill presented in the assembly is not the bill which was passed by Select Committee or Ulema Committee.
Maulana Fazal-ur-Rehman said that it was decided that zina (adultery) would fall in Tazir and zina-bil-jabar (rape) would fall in Hud but in this bill no such things are mentioned. Opposition leader said that the bill has a lot of flaws as the government is sending a message that problems of women are related to only one clause. The women of the country is facing a lot of problems including forced marriages and the custom of Wata Sata.
Fazal-ur-Rehman said the government is not focusing to solve the problems faced by majority of women and legislation is being made contrary to Quran and Sunnah, he added.—Online
