Hina Jilani in Conversation

April 16, 2008 · Leave a Comment

Radio National’s ‘Law Report” of 8-4-08 was devoted to a conversation with Hina Jilani, lawyer and activist for women’s rights in Pakistan for thirty years. During the conversation she talked about laws (both old and recently amended) concerning rape and adultery in Pakistan, honour killings (which apparently still happen) as well as relating incidents from her life that have occurred though her career as an advocate for women’s rights.
