This is the main entrance of Pakistan\'s federal Parliament. The families of the missing citizens blocked the main gate to protest against the controversial presidential decree to provide blanket immunity to the military and intelligence agencies for all the past kidnappings of thousands of citizens. The illegal handing over of citizens to the US has also been legalized under the cover of so-called war on terror.
Under this controversial decree, the security agencies can now arrest any one for a long period of time--- something Pakistani intelligence agencies have been doing illegally since 9/11.
