Free Mason Hall
When Zia-ul-Haq banned the activities of the Freemasons on June 17, 1983, under the Marshall Law, Regulation 56, his activities continued.  Because the order did not specify legal or illegal activities.  Therefore, according to the members, they were carrying out legal activities.  With this in mind, the Government declared the Martial Law Regulation of 17 June 1983 by the Martial Law Administrator on 29 December 1985.  Under the order, the Freemasons were banned.  Under section (5), this decision cannot be challenged in any court.  And the person who obstructs the order under section (7) shall be punished severely with imprisonment for a term not exceeding three years and with fine.
