Earlier, International Forum for Justice and Human Rights Chairman Ahsan Untoo had filed a petition with SHRC demanding that appointing a commission for protecting of child rights.

In the petition, Untoo had highlighted the large number of students, both elementary and high school level, in all districts had come on streets against the civilian killings.

“But they were dealt with iron hand and brute force by the police. The government rather than using force should have handled the students with empathy rather than labeling their protests as a law and order problem, reads the petition,” reads the petition.
