Petition for the Release of Sayed Pervez Kambaksh
From Nicole I found out about the 23-year old journalist from Afghanistan who was sentenced to death for having militated for women's rights, thus defying the Muslim fundamentalists. Sayed Pervez Kambaksh afirmed that the teachings of Mohamed did in no way encourage the extreme treatment applied to women. About three months ago he desired to oprganize a group discussion on this matter at his university, but instead he got arrested, was judged without legal representation and is now waiting to be executed.
The British newspaper The Independent created a petition which anyone can sign, so that we can all contribute to the Western pressure against these extremist, shameful acts. Other related articles can be found on Javno World , Gulf Times or BBC News.
