Aafia’s conviction a mockery of justice: JI
KARACHI – Jamaat-e-Islami Sindh (JI) on Friday expressed deepest concern over injustice and discrimination with Dr Aafia in American court where she was convicted even when the evidence brought before the judge proved false.
This was said in a joint resolution after the meeting of advisory committee of Jamaat-e-Islami Sindh here.
The JI leaders said that it has become loud and clear that American justice system is based on discrimination and it has duality while delivering justice to Muslims. They angered over the American court by saying that witness were proved false but it convicted Aafia as guilty for the sake of protecting the moral of American soldiers which amounts to denial of justice by the court. The JI leaders said that the court issued a verdict that is based on prejudice and it afflicts the a woman and the entire Muslim Ummah.
Gross miscarriage of justice: Aafia Siddiqui Innocent victim of prejudice
Aafia Siddiqui has been a victim from that fateful moment when she was kidnapped, and sent to Afghanistan–where she was brutally tortured. Her family also faced horrendous pain. A prejudiced jury has now pronounced her guilt–guilty of a crime of shooting at a marine–when there were no bullet holes, and no fingerpring on the gun–the frail MIT graduate has been pronounced guilty of attacking several armed males, somehow snatching their gun and then shooting at them–when she had no clue about guns.
Hopefully she will will the case on appeal.
NEW YORK: Aafia Siddiqui, the Pakistani neuroscientist, was found guilty of attempted murder charges on all seven counts listed in the complaint against her. She was tried on charges of trying to kill American soldiers in Afghanistan on July 28, 2008.
