---

Article of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights Vol. 14, No. 3 & 4: The State of Freedom of Expression in Pakistan examines the condition of freedom of expression in Pakistan through the normative framework of the ICCPR. The article analyzes constitutional provisions, laws, and state practices affecting media, journalists, civil society, and citizens, highlighting restrictions such as censorship, intimidation, blasphemy laws, and security-related regulations. By assessing Pakistan’s compliance with its international human rights obligations, the article underscores the gap between legal commitments and actual practice, and emphasizes the need for legal reform, institutional accountability, and stronger protections to ensure freedom of expression as a fundamental civil and political right.
