PESHAWAR: JUI-F’s chief, while rejecting the Islamabad Capital Territory Child Marriage Restraint Bill 2025 (signed into law on 27th May setting a minimum legal age of 18 years for marriages) announced nationwide protest rallies against the act.
Fazl, while talking to the journalists at a Presser held here Sunday (1st June, 2025), said the protests were meant to create awareness apropos the Act that: “made fornication easier while making legitimate marriages difficult…
“Pakistan is a strange country — during the time of General Musharraf, a constitutional amendment was passed in the name of women’s rights that decriminalised sexual intercourse outside of marriage. It took it out of the realm of sin.“
