APL slams Dr.Aafia Siddiqui’s conviction
LONDON : The UK-based Association of Pakistan Lawyers (APL) has flayed the conviction of Dr.Aafia Siddiqui by a New York court and said the neuro-scientist needs justice which is seen to be done.
Chairman, APL, Barrister Amjad Malik in a statement expressed apprehension that her conviction will affect relations between the two countries as well as people-to-people contact.
“USA is already making efforts to bridge the gap between the people of Pakistan and US Administration and Dr. Aafia’s conviction will wipe out all efforts and this decision seems to have dictated through fears than the facts and law,” he said.
