Pakistan rejects US report on human rights practices

Islamabad, April 26 (UNI) Pakistan has "categorically" rejected a report by the U.S. State Department over the alleged human rights violations in the country last year, saying that only a politically motivated report can ignore the alarming situation in Gaza.
"It is deeply concerning that a report purported to highlight human rights situations around the world ignores or downplays the most urgent hotspots of gross human rights violations such as in Gaza," the ministry said in a statement released late Thursday.
Titled "2023 Country Reports on Human Rights Practices: Pakistan," the contents of the report are unfair, based on inaccurate information and are completely divorced from the ground reality, said the statement.
