<p>The UK does not comment or interfere with judicial processes in Pakistan. They
are a matter for the Pakistan judicial system. However, the UK does regularly engage

on human rights and the rule of law. The former Foreign Secretary met the caretaker
Prime Minister Anwaar-Ul-Haq Kakar, on the 23rd September, where he raised the importance
of protecting the rights of religious minorities in Pakistan. Lord (Tariq) Ahmad of
Wimbledon, Minister for South Asia, condemned the violence and discrimination faced
by religious minorities in his meeting with Pakistan's caretaker Foreign Minister
Jalil Abbas Jilani on 13 September.</p>
