Islamabad High Court directs Pakistani authorities to review Aafia Siddiqui's 2020 mercy appeal to the U.S. President.
The Islamabad High Court criticized the Pakistani government's inaction regarding Aafia Siddiqui, a neuroscientist sentenced to 86 years in the U.S. for attempted murder. The court questioned why the government had not supported her sister-in-law's 2020 mercy appeal to the U.S. President. It directed Siddiqui's lawyer to share the appeal draft with Pakistani authorities within a week and set the next hearing for September 13, 2024.
