International appeal to support the immediate release of a young Afghan Journalist
24 January 2008, 14:18
I, as a Norwegian ISAF officer in Mazar Sharif condemn the death sentence over Parwez Kambakhsh and request to free him imidiately. I request Government of Afghanistan respects human rights and free speach. This news is published in Norway and we are under presure from human right organisations and our people to help this young journalist. We know that we (ISAF) should not intervin in Afghanistans internal affairs but what shall we respond to our people in Norway when they ask us why you kept silence in this important issue ? 50% of Norwegian people want us to leave afghanistan, if you commit this sentence than the number of people who want us to withrow will increase. Please let us be here to help you for a prosprous Afghnaistan. Do not disapoint us.
Regards, Norwegian ISAF Officer, Kamp Marmal, Mazar Sharif.
