Dr. Aafia Siddiqui was abducted in Pakistan in 2003 with her three young children andsecretly detained for years, including time in CIA black sites and Bagram Airbase. She reappeared in U.S. custody in 2008, charged under deeply flawed and contested circumstances, and was sentenced to 86 years in prison - despite the absence of credible evidence.
Today, she is imprisoned in FMC Carswell, Texas - a facility notorious for abuse. Aafia has endured:
- Rape and sexual assault by prison staff
- Years of solitary confinement
- Severe physical and psychological trauma
- Denied religious visits, medical care, and family contactHer suffering is not just a miscarriage of justice — it’s a human rights catastrophe“Free the prisoner.” – Prophet Muhammad ﷺ“The worst case of individual injustice I have ever witnessed.” – Ramsey Clark
