Aafia handed the letter to Pakistan’s Consul General in Houston AishaFarooqui who visited her on October 9.
“I want to get out of prison, my imprisonment in the US is illegal as I waskidnapped and taken to the US, Imran Khan had supported me in the pastalso. I have always considered him as one of my biggest heroes and wish tosee him as the Khalifa of all Muslims. He should be careful of the munafiq(hypocrites) around him,” Aafia wrote.
She also said that the premier’s past mistakes should be overlooked by hiscritics, “All those who criticise Imran Khan for his past mistakes shouldstop doing that because under Islamic law he is innocent. Even the Sahabawith the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) had made mistakes in their lives and whenthey embraced Islam their past mistakes were forgiven and they becameinnocent. It is the same with Imran Khan. He had once stated himself thathe came to learn about Islam much later in his life. If anyone has doubtson this, I can debate about this.”
