Since October 2007, Parwiz Kambakhsh, a 23 year old Afghan journalist, has been in prison in Northern Afghanistan and sentenced to execution for blasphemy. His ‘crime’ was distributing articles downloaded from the internet that questioned the condition of women under Islam.

The Afghan government has supported the Islamic court’s ruling.

The Iranian Secular Society calls upon groups and individuals to join the protest against this barbaric sentence and demand the immediate and unconditional release of Kambakhsh, including by joining the London protest, organising protests in various cities, writing letters of protest and more.
