A devoted mother and practising Muslim; who dedicated her life to spreading the religion of God and assisting fellow Muslims. It is believed that she was abducted at the behest of American intelligence from Pakistan, her home country along with her children in 2003, the youngest of whom was just six months old at that time. She was shot by US soldiers and then tried and convicted after enduring over 7 years of torture, rape and humiliation; now facing life in prison. Two of her children have been released, while the whereabouts of the youngest son remain unknown.

She is our sister and her name is Aafia.
