...Imagine you're out one day with your family, enjoying the time together - imagine you're out on some missionary work, helping the worlds most underprivileged people - imagine you're in a lecture theatre telling the room full of students about the injustice in the world and how one day they can bring about some change - imagine being kidnapped, raped, beaten, tortured - imagine being a woman, disgraced, torn from her family, husband and children and imagine your children disappeared into thin air never to be seen again - ever!
She is known to many in the world as 'Prisoner #650' and she is standing trial for....well lets see now....being a law abiding citizen wrongly accused of having links with terrorists and plotting against the west?
Aafia Siddiqui - a daughter, a sister, a friend, a wife, a mother - a Victim!
Who will be the Voice of the Voiceless??? And who will stand up for Justice - for Dr Aafia Siddiqui?
To read about her story and her trial and to help her please visit the following website which has been set up by her family http://www.freeaafia.org/ at least pray for her and ask the Almighty to help her through this....you never know....it could be one of us next....
