Mexico: Violence against women in the family in Mexico
Amnesty International believes that Mexico has made some important advances in recent years in defending womens right to freedom from violence. In June 2008, wholesale reform of the criminal justice system began. Amnesty Internationals hopes this will also lead to strengthened investigation and prosecution of those responsible for violence against women. The challenge that faces all levels of government is to ensure that new legislation to protect womens rights are implemented and that the barriers women currently face in accessing safety, justice and reparations are removed.

Pakistan: Denying the undeniable: Enforced disappearances in Pakistan
In 2006 the Supreme Court took up regular hearings of petitions filed on behalf of Pakistan's 'disappeared'. However, in November 2007, Pervez Musharraf imposed a state of emergency and deposed the majority of judges. Since the elections in February 2008, not much has improved for the disappeared or their families. The coalition members have failed to agree on when and how to bring back the deposed justices. Amnesty International calls on the new government to act now to end this grave human rights violation.

Love, hate and the law: decriminalizing homosexuality
The paper explores the different legal approaches to criminalizing homosexuality, including less direct approaches that may not explicitly criminalize same-sex sexual conduct but instead seek to prevent the promotion of homosexuality, protect children, or respond to public health concerns. Decriminalization is not the whole answer, but it is a key step towards respecting, protecting and fulfilling the human rights of lesbian, gay, bisexual, same-sex practicing and transgender people.

This briefing highlights only some of the most pressing concerns about the Bill, but does not purport to be an exhaustive analysis.
