(c) Observations by the Special Rapporteur 313. The Special Rapporteur is grateful that the Government of Pakistan replied by letter of 11 August 2010. He would like to refer to Human Rights Council resolution 6/37, in which the Council urges States “to take all necessary and appropriate action, in conformity with international standards of human rights, to combat hatred, intolerance and acts of violence, intimidation and coercion motivated by intolerance based on religion or belief, as well as incitement to hostility and violence”. The General Assembly, in its resolution 64/164, urges States “to ensure that no one within their jurisdiction is deprived of the right to life, liberty or security of person because of religion or belief [...] and to bring to justice all perpetrators of violations of these rights”. 314. Moreover, the Special Rapporteur wishes to take this opportunity to refer to his framework for communications, more specifically to the international human rights norms and to the mandate practice concerning the intersection of freedom of religion or belief with other human rights, including the right to life (see para. 1 above, category D. 2.). 5. (a) Communication sent on 26 August 2010 jointly with the Independent Expert on minority issues Allegations transmitted to the Government 315. The Special Procedures mandate holders expressed their great sadness and sympathy for the people of Pakistan, as well as our solidarity as the country bears the terrible tragedy and loss of life during these difficult days of natural disaster. While fully recognizing the extreme challenges facing the Government at this time, pursuant to the responsibilities provided to us under our mandates, the Special Procedures mandate holders drew the attention of the Government to information regarding the situation of members of the Ahmaddiyyah community from Dera Ghazi Khan, Muzaffargarh and Rajanpur districts. 316. According to the information received, in the context of the displacement by the massive floods in South Punjab in August 2010, Government officials and local clerics have reportedly refused to provide shelter to around five hundred flood-affected Ahmadi families from Dera Ghazi Khan, Muzaffargarh and Rajanpur districts. 317. Reportedly, two hundred families, who have been displaced from Basti Rindan and Basti Sohrani by flooding, took shelter in a state-run school at Jhok Utra but the local administration forced them to leave this school. The local administration indicated that people from the surrounding areas did not want any Ahmadis in the relief camp and that the local administration tried to avoid a law and order situation. 60
