ABOUT THE AUTHORS Justice Project Pakistan (‘JPP’) JPP is a non-profit human rights law firm established in Lahore in December 2009. JPP provides direct pro bono legal and investigative services to the most vulnerable prisoners in the Pakistani justice system, particularly those facing the death penalty, victims of police torture, mentally ill prisoners and victims of the ‘War on Terror’. JPP also conducts strategic litigation to challenge unjust laws and to create progressive legal precedent. Our litigation aims, among other things, to improve the rights of the mentally ill, restrict the application of the death penalty, bring Freedom of Information to Pakistan, and enforce the fundamental rights of prisoners. Reprieve Reprieve is an international human rights NGO with offices in London and New York. Reprieve promotes the rule of law around the world, and secures each person’s right to a fair trial, from death row to Guantánamo Bay. We prioritise the cases of prisoners accused of the most extreme crimes, such as acts or murder or terrorism, as it is in such cases that human rights are most likely to be jettisoned or eroded. Reprieve focuses on cases involving the world’s most powerful governments, especially those that should be upholding the highest standards when it comes to fair trials. December 2014
