Dr Aafia Siddiqui, a Pakistani-American neuroscientist, was sentenced to 86 years in prison on dubious charges of attempting to kill US soldiers in Afghanistan. Her case has become a rallying cry for activists worldwide, who are demanding justice for this victim of Islamophobia and anti-Muslim sentiment. Here are seven reasons why her case matters: she was sentenced unfairly and without evidence, suffered torture and sexual abuse in prison, her imprisonment is a political tool in the war on terror, highlights the injustices faced by Muslim women, her family has suffered immense trauma and injustice, and Justice for Dr Aafia is a call for accountability and respect for human rights. It's time to take action and demand justice for Dr Aafia Siddiqui! #JusticeForAafia #HumanRights #EndIslamophobia
