Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4Heres a report on the demo. Full text at the link at the end of this comment. More pictures at: http://www.iransecularsociety.com/London%20Protest%20Ka...h.htm
Protestors picketed the Afghanistan Embassy in London to call for the immediate release of Parwiz Kambakhsh. The protest, organised by the Iranian Secular Society, was in response to the arrest, jailing and death sentence imposed on Parwiz Kambakhsh for downloading and discussing the plight of women under Islam.
Officials of the Afghan embassy met outside with protestors to state that the death sentence against Kambakhsh will be commuted. Protestors insisted upon his immediate released saying he had committed no crime. They also expressed their concern regarding Kambakhsh’s physical and emotional safety as he has been left at the mercy of and beaten by other common prisoners, including Taliban prisoners, who had been told by prison guards that he has ‘blasphemed’ against Islam.
We women need more enlightening male like Pervez who dare to debate about women's rights in Islam and all the brilliant supporters such as the brave protesters today! Thank you and hopefully Pervez will be brought to the UK as he deserves such protection!
The protestors were not brave.
They were in no danger of being dragged away by secret police or tortured etc.
It's called free speech and it's NOT free .
I have studied the face of the guy and I can say that he is a fine individual.
I wish him well and hope he makes his way out of that hell hole.
