Coincidence or a sadistic April Fools' prank on Dr Aafia's mother  - 2 years in a row

For the second year in a row, influential persons in Islamabad have chosen April 1 as the day to promise Dr. Aafia's mother a phone call from Aafia.  And for two years in a row, she has waited by the phone - but no call came.
Maybe this is just coincidence or some in Islamabad and Washington are enjoying a sadistic April Fools' prank.

(NOTE: Aafia has not spoken to a member of her family since October 2010.  She has not met with any member of her family since May, 2009.  She is not allowed to retain a lawyer of her choice.)
