11. But The Christian community inside the prisons of The
Punjab in Pakistan are being persecuted and denied the
same religious freedom as other religions. The
missionaries/Pastors /Teachers have increasingly stopped
access to the prisoners, while Muslim religious teachers
(including the Muslim religious teaches of jail's staff) can
preach and teach with no limits and Christian prisoners
have not chance to improve the education and under trial
prisoners are forced to labor of sweeping and illegal
transfer to other jails on bogus administrative grounds.
The most of the prisoners are put into torture cells on the
bogus administrative grounds under rule 153 of Pakistan
Prisons Rule 1978 and they bear torture with fitters for
many years.
