Our last post for our #DoosreAsnaafKiTareekh is the the Ordinance of Zina from the Hudood Ordinance: 
Enacted in 1979 under General Zia’s Islamisation process, the Hudood ordinances were a series of laws that replaced British-era laws in the Pakistan Penal Code. One of the ordinances was the ‘Offence of Zina’ which refers to fornication, adultery and rape.
Under the ordinance, several punishments were highlighted for the offenses, starting from the most severe or hadd such as public whipping of 100 lashes, and stoning to death of the adulterer, to lesser severe ones or tazir such as imprisonment up to ten years.
