Bringing Dr Aafia home - A conversation with her sister, Dr Fowzia Siddiqui
Join Dr Kathy Bullock as she interviews Dr Fowzia Siddiqui, the elder sister of Dr Aafia Siddiqui, about her gut-wrenching battle to bring back her sibling home from federal prison in the U.S.
Dr Aafia is a Pakistani national and is currently serving an 86-year sentence in the US, following her conviction by a federal court in New York in 2010 on attempted murder and other charges. The charges are denied by her and her family.
Dr Aafia is dubbed as the "daughter of Pakistani nation." Her arrest and conviction has been protested even in the remotest areas of Pakistan.
This year, Dr Fowzia has been able to meet her sister after twenty years in the U.S prison. Legal experts view this as a glimmer of hope of her return.
This is Dr. Aafia's unimaginable story in the words of her sister.
