I sent an email earlier about an inmate who is awaiting his release from Adyala jail in Rawalpindi. Nazeer Hussain has completed life sentence and his release now depends on Rs. 100,000 (around $1600). Here is the article if you would like to know more on this (in urdu):
http://akhbar.urdupoint.com/columns/naukhaiz_akhtar/20-01-02.shtml I called Ali Chaudhry, the editor of UrduPoint. I mentioned that we would like to confirm the situation. He will email me with the detials. I plan to meet with Ali and Gul-Naukhez (author of the above article) while I am in Pakistan. I will also try to visit Nazeer Hussain in Adyala jail. If you are interested in donating, please contact me ASAP. I will be leaving on Feb 1 so there is not much time left. Remember, any amount is better than no amount. Even if you can spare $10, do so. I plan to collect atleast $1000 from here and I know we can do it in a heart beat. I will report by the end of Feb when I am back.
