repatriate Dr. Aafia Siddiqui, imprisoned for more than 11 years, as a matter of urgency.

Created on July 30, 2014

In the name of ALLAH, The Most Compassionate,
The Most Merciful. We appeal to you as brothers
and sisters in humanity to relieve the suffering of
an innocent woman. In March 2003, Dr. Aafia
Siddiqui was abducted with her three young
children in Pakistan on the basis of faulty
intelligence, a rendition operation that a former
Pakistani official has since admitted. Five years
later she mysteriously reappeared in a weakened
state in Afghanistan; she was shot and later
charged in a federal court with attempted
murder. Dr. Siddiqui was sentenced to 86 years
for a "crime" in which she alone was injured, she
has now suffered needlessly for more than 11
years. We ask the government to affirm the
American ideals of "liberty and justice for all."
End Aafia’s suffering; reunite her with her family.
