Afghanistan: Journalist dömd

Journalisten Hamid Farhadi greps i september 2024 av talibanernas inrikesministerium, och dömdes till två års fängelse orättvist anklagad för spridande av propaganda. Farhadi, som arbetar för en exiltidning, fick inte tillgång till advokat under rättegången. I mars i år flyttades han till det ökända Bagram-fängelset.

Dear Mr. Mufti Abdul Matin Qane,

I am writing to express my concern about the arbitrary arrest and detention of journalist Hamid Farhadi on 3 September 2024. On 19 September 2024, Hamid Farhadi was tried at the Taliban court in Kabul, without access to a defence lawyer. During this unjust trial he was sentenced to two years in prison. I therefore urge you to: Ensure the immediate and unconditional release of Hamid Farhadi; Ensure that he is held in conditions meeting international standards of fairness.

Yours sincerely,
