Falsely accused and illegally imprisoned, Dr Aafiah is serving 86 years behind bars in the US. The punishment does not fit the crimes if they're even crime she did. 

Dr. Aafia Siddiqui, a Pakistani woman and U.S. educated neuroscientist, was visiting her parents in Pakistan when she and her three young children disappeared in 2003. Human rights groups say she was taken into U.S. custody in Afghanistan, where she was held in secret detention and tortured for 5 years. 

In July 2008 she re-appeared in Afghanistan (along with her oldest son) and was detained as a suspected al-Qaida supporter. While she was being held for questioning in an Afghan police station, U.S. prosecutors say she grabbed an American soldier’s rifle and fired at a group of American troops and FBI agents in the room. When an American soldier fired back, Siddiqui was shot and severely wounded. However, forensic evidence does not support this charge against Dr. Siddiqui since her fingerprints were NOT on any gun. In her testimony, Siddiqui told the jurors that she had been standing alone, behind a curtain in the room, when she moved toward the curtain, to see if there was a way to leave. At that point, she said, she was shot by two American soldiers. In spite of the  lack of forensic evidence, and conflicting testimony by witnesses, Dr. Siddiqui was convicted and sentenced to 86 years in prison. She is currently being held in solitary confinement in the Federal Medical Center Carswell Texas.

Her the youngest son (who was a baby at the time of his disappearance) is still missing.

It’s time to bring her home!
