Dr Fowzia Siddiqui, sister of Dr. Aafia Siddiqui, called on Prime Minister Muhammad Shehbaz Sharif in Islamabad today.
During the meeting, she appreciated the measures that Government is undertaking for Dr. Aafia’s well-being and requested the government to speed up efforts for the early release of Dr. Aafia.
The Prime Minister assured Dr. Fowzia Siddiqui of the government’s full support.
He lauded Dr. Fowzia’s untiring efforts in the pursuit of justice for her sister and prayed for the well-being and good health of Dr. Aafia.
The Prime Minister also instructed the Foreign Ministry to remain fully engaged with the US government, as well as Pakistan’s Mission in Washington, for Dr. Aafia’s well-being and for her early release.
It merits to mention that former Prime Minister Muhammad Nawaz Sharif also had made robust efforts for release of Dr. Aafia.
