Thursday 10th November Deadline for Babar Ahmed

Babar Ahmed

Recently the free Babar Ahmad campaign has been gaining momentum, however, the response from Muslims and non - Muslims alike, is still not near enough what is required.

Just to remind you again, why your small contribution of a signature for the petition is so important. Babar Ahmad was arrested in 2003, without charge and has received horrific injuries since his arrest. All that is being asked for is a fair trial in the UK – a basic human right which has been denied for so many years. The US have requested extradition for his apparent support of ‘terrorism’ – something which Babar Ahmad denies. He was arrested in the UK, so extradition is a ludicrous idea, but currently is a real possibility.

100,000 signatures are required for the petition before 10th November, for his fair trial in the UK to even be debated in parliament. It is shameful that something as basic as a signature has become too big an ask from us.

Play your part in helping Babar Ahmad reach his first step towards justice – sign and share the petition. This article also suggests what else you can do to help.
