Uncategorized Bin Laden doctor launches hunger strike in Pakistan by sibylmetz7657 9 أبريل، 2020 written by sibylmetz7657 9 أبريل، 2020 31 Pakistani surgeon Shakeel Afridi, pictured in 2010, has been languishing behind bars for years since helping US agents track and kill Osama bin Laden in 2011 The Pakistani doctor who helped the CIA track and kill Osama bin Laden has launched a hunger strike from his prison cell, his lawyer and family said Monday. Shakeel Afridi has been languishing behind bars for years since his fake vaccination programme helped US agents track and 우아미넷 kill the Al Qaeda leader in 2011. “It is to protest the injustices and inhumane attitudes being committed against him and his family,” his brother Jamil Afridi told AFP after meeting with Afridi in a prison in central Punjab province. His attorney Qamar Nadeem also confirmed the hunger strike. Afridi was jailed for 33 years in May 2012 after he was convicted of having ties to militants, 우아미서버 a charge he has always denied. His sentence was later reduced by 10 years. Some US lawmakers have branded the case as revenge for his help in the search for the Al Qaeda chief. The 2011 killing of Bin Laden caused massive embarrassment for Pakistan and particularly its powerful military. For years Afridi has had no access to his lawyer, while his appeal against his prison sentence has stalled with scheduled court appearances repeatedly delayed. His family has also complained of being targeted and harassed by authorities over the years. US President Donald Trump vowed during his election campaign that he would order Pakistan to free Afridi, but since taking office has been largely silent on the issue. The comments sparked a blistering rebuttal from Pakistan, whose interior minister at the time branded Trump “ignorant” and stated that the “government of Pakistan and not Donald Trump” would decide Afridi’s fate. In recent years Pakistani authorities have cracked down on nonprofits and forced them to leave the country, which analysts say was largely tied to the Afridi case due to the security establishment’s fears that NGOs have provided cover for spying. 리니지프리서버홍보 0 comment 0 FacebookTwitterPinterestEmail sibylmetz7657 previous post Free Halloween Bat Crochet Patterns next post Travel Tips for enjoying an affordable getaway to Las Vegas You may also like مرصد كتب “المجلة”… جولة على أحدث إصدارات دور... 16 ديسمبر، 2024 اتحاد كتّاب الأسد ينال جائزة أسرع بيان استدارة! 13 ديسمبر، 2024 سامر أبو هواش يكتب قصيدة ما بعد غزة... 10 ديسمبر، 2024 الكتب رفيقة العزلة بمحتوياتها وملمسها ورائحة ورقها 9 ديسمبر، 2024 «نيويورك تايمز»: ماسك وسفير إيران لدى الأمم المتحدة... 15 نوفمبر، 2024 نتنياهو ينسف الاتفاق المرتقب لوقف حرب لبنان 2 نوفمبر، 2024 مهى سلطان تكتب عن: صناعة أسطورة جاكسون بولوك... 29 أكتوبر، 2024 العمليات الخارجية الإيرانية في أوروبا: العلاقة الإجرامية 23 أكتوبر، 2024 الذكاء الاصطناعي يذكر بما أحدثته الثورة الصناعية قبل... 21 أكتوبر، 2024 تقرير اندبندنت عربية / ميدان لبنان مشتعل وتل... 13 أكتوبر، 2024 Leave a Comment Save my name, email, and website in this browser for the next time I comment.
