Dr. Aafia's Family Launches their Official Website
Confused about the facts? Looking for a reliable source for information about Dr. Aafia? The Siddiqui family has put together an online resource to allow the public to see the case through their eyes.
Unexplained detention, suffering and isolation have too long been this family's burden. Justice, humane treatment and due process are luxuries long denied to Aafia and her young children, replaced with abuse and imprisonment without formal charges.

MLFA Fundraiser in NY
The main problem is the confusion surrounding Dr. Aafia' case: confusion leads to doubt, doubt leads to fear, and fear leads to inaction.
Our first task therefore is to publicize facts, expose deliberate disinformation by certain quarters, and inform and involve Pakistani-Americans and fair-minded fellow Americans.
To that end, we have held forums in Santa Clara, San Francisco, and Chicago. Now we have scheduled a series of educational forums and fundraising events in New York, Michigan, Virginia and Missouri, among other places.
For More Information about the Aug. 9, 2009, NY educational forum and fundraising event visit: www.freeaafia.org

Stand for humane treatment and stand against injustice! Standing for Dr. Aafia brings light to all missing persons, victims of extraordinary rendition and people held in secret prisons. It sends the message that all human beings, especially - our sisters - Muslim women have rights!
