The Supreme Court of Pakistan has taken suo motu notice of a death decree in Kohistan, allegedly issued by a tribal Jirga (committee) of elders ordering the execution of four women on charge of "singing and dancing with men" at a wedding party recently.The severe punishment came even as the heavily clothed four women, with only their faces showing, were merely seen in footage clapping and singing. However, the upset villagers allegedly killed them at the behest of the Jirga.According to the brother of an "accused" -- Mohammad Afzal, who filmed the video and than uploaded it on the net -- the incident took place on May 30 following a wedding party.The commissioner of the area, Hazara Khalid Umarzai, and provincial minister for social welfare Sitara Ayaz, however, denied the killings. They claimed that the women were alive and safe in their homes.According to Afzal, the women were kept in captivity and tortured by pouring boiling water on their bodies before being executed. The Jirga had also ordered the killing of Afzal and his brother along with the four, but the duo reportedly fled the village.
