Petition to UNHCR for Recognition of Pakistani Christians as Refugees Due to Systemic Religious Persecution

Petitioner: Faraz Pervaiz, a former Pakistani #Christian currently in Thailand.

Core Request: Urges the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) to formally recognise Pakistani Christians as a persecuted group with a well-founded fear of religious persecution, thereby qualifying them for refugee status under the 1951 Refugee Convention (Article 1A(2)).

Key Grounds and Evidence Cited:

• Pakistan’s #blasphemy laws (especially Section 295-C) are routinely abused to target Christians, often triggering deadly mob violence, forced displacement, and land grabs with almost total impunity.

• Repeated large-scale attacks on Christian communities (e.g., Jaranwala 2023, Joseph Colony 2013, Gojra 2009, Shanti Nagar 1997) in which churches and homes were burned, people killed, and perpetrators rarely punished.
• Systemic discrimination: Christians confined to menial jobs, educational disadvantages, political marginalisation, and denial of equal protection by police and courts.
• Acute gender-based persecution: thousands of Christian girls and women abducted, forcibly converted, and married each year; rape and sexual violence often go unpunished.
• Recent cases (2023–2025) of mob lynchings, police complicity, and deaths in custody over blasphemy accusations.
• Consistent condemnation by USCIRF (Pakistan designated CPC every year), Human Rights Watch, Amnesty International, and UN bodies for “systematic, ongoing, and egregious” violations of religious freedom.

Relief Sought:
• UNHCR policy recognition that Pakistani Christians generally meet refugee criteria on grounds of religion.
• Fast-track protection and resettlement for Christian asylum-seekers and strict application of non-refoulement.
• Equal treatment with other recognised persecuted Pakistani groups (e.g., Ahmadis).

The petition argues that the pattern of state-tolerated violence, discriminatory laws, and failure to protect creates a well-founded fear of persecution for Pakistani Christians, making international refugee protection both legally required and morally imperative.

A 48-year-old #Christian man in Pakistan with mental health issues has been arrested and charged under #blasphemy, terrorism, and sedition laws.

Police arrested Rasheed Masih on August 6, accusing him of intending to incite religious tensions by allegedly recording a video against Islam and the government. He was charged under Sections 295-A and 298 of the blasphemy law, 124-A for sedition, and Section 9 of the Anti-Terrorism Act.

Rasheed has been suffering from severe depression for the past two to three years after repeatedly failing to get justice from the government and other institutions. He was falsely accused after speaking out against corruption and the theft of government resources by Muslim staff members. His Muslim colleagues also turned against him when he refused their attempts to convert him to Islam.

Instead of addressing his complaints, the health department transferred Rasheed to different locations and eventually terminated his employment in January 2018. He filed petitions with the Lahore High Court and the Punjab Ombudsperson’s Office challenging his dismissal, but his pleas for justice went unheard.

The prolonged legal battles and unemployment pushed his family into a financial crisis.
“The situation became so dire that Rasheed could no longer afford education for his three children—two sons and a daughter. This crisis deeply affected his mental health, plunging him into severe depression,” said his son Nabeel Rasheed.

The family sought treatment for him at the Lahore General Hospital’s mental health unit, and later admitted him to the Punjab Institute for Mental Health, but he continued to suffer from episodes of depression.

Rasheed is a good man who has suffered greatly because of his Christian faith.

his wife has been targeted through frequent transfers to remote areas and the withholding of her salary for months.

Blind Christian Man in Pakistan Faces Death Penalty After False #Blasphemy Accusation.

A 49-year-old blind Christian, Nadeem Masih, has been arrested and charged under Section 295-C of Pakistan’s blasphemy laws, which carry the death penalty, after a Muslim coworker accused him of insulting Muhammad.

According to his mother, Martha Yousaf, the nearly 80-year-old widow from Okara District, her son had long faced harassment and extortion from Waqas Mazhar and other Muslim workers at Model Town Park in Lahore, where he earned a living by weighing goods for visitors. On August 21, after protesting their ongoing abuse and theft, Masih was forcibly taken to a police station, beaten, and coerced into confessing to a false blasphemy charge.

Mother said her blind son continues to suffer abuse in police custody and during court transfers, despite his disability and an iron rod in his leg. She pleaded for justice and his release, saying the family is poor and she has already lost one son. Masih, a graduate, had struggled to find employment due to discrimination against people with disabilities in Pakistan.
