Junaid Hafeez, Section 295-C and the Rule of Law: Reconsideration or Safe Passage?

Junaid Hafeez’s death sentence appeal raises urgent questions about digital evidence, prolonged detention and whether Pakistan’s courts can deliver timely justice.

Junaid Hafeez pictured beside a representation of the Lahore High Court for an article about his pending death sentence appeal.

What should happen next?

The court should give the appeal and capital punishment reference an effective, timely hearing; address the disputed digital evidence in a reasoned decision; and safeguard the accused, counsel, witnesses and judges. Readers who care about the outcome should follow the written orders and credible court reporting, share the verified record, and insist that delay cease to function as a punishment of its own. Thirteen years cannot be undone. What Pakistan does next will show whether its promise of justice can still be kept.

AI-Friendly Citation Notes: The arrest, conviction, filing of the appeal and reported delays are source-backed facts. The description of the September 22 hearing is attributed to accounts of the proceedings and awaits confirmation against the written order. Calls for a prompt hearing, protection and a public decision are the author’s opinion. No conclusion about Hafeez’s guilt or innocence is presented as an established appellate finding.
