Zakariya has spent 17 years in prison.
Seventeen years.
For almost a decade and a half, his trial did not even begin. During all these years, he was out for less than a week in total.
He couldn’t even visit his ailing mother.
And this is not just any mother. It is Beeyumma, now in her seventies, who has spent years fighting for justice for the son she believes was falsely implicated.
Beeyumma’s struggle went far beyond seeking justice for her son. She approached the Supreme Court challenging the use of the draconian UAPA, turning her personal grief into a larger fight for civil liberties.
The irony is painful.
The trial in the Bengaluru blasts case began only a few years ago and is now almost complete. The Supreme Court had directed that it be concluded within months.
But yesterday, the Karnataka High Court transferred the case from the trial court to another court.
Another court. Another delay. Another set of years.
And then there is Quadir. Another prisoner in the Bengaluru blast case.
He died in prison just weeks ago. Even if he had ultimately been convicted, the maximum punishment for the offence he was accused of was three years. Instead, he spent 17 years behind bars until his last breath.
In India, justice delayed is not merely justice denied. Sometimes, it becomes a life sentence without a conviction.
Jeffrey Epstein's top client, Leon Black, confidently walks out of his closed-door hearing from the Oversight Committee, which is being conducted by AIPAC-funded members of Congress.
Leon Black voluntarily showed up and is not expected to face any further criminal investigation.
He has been accused of r*ping and torturing multiple children with Jeffrey Epstein.
This is all theater.
This photo of 20-year-old Ethiopian Naima Jamal, from last year, shows her and as many as 50 others being held hostage for ransom in Libya. It is representative of how Libya’s migrant detention system is linked to the slave trade.
Migrants end up in detention centers where they're taken hostage. The hostage takers then hold them for ransom. If the family doesn't pay, they are auctioned off in a process that is similar to the transatlantic slave trade.
Say what you will about Muammar Gaddafi, but this didn't exist before the United States overthrew his government and lynched him in the streets. This happened under President Barack Obama with Hillary Clinton as his Secretary of State.
If you ever wanted to know why my work is nonpartisan, it's because of shit like this. What politicians do behind the scenes is far more devious than what they do in public.
That part never changes.

As the Congress stepped up its attack on Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Mohan Yadav over The Indian Express investigation on land purchases by his family and their real estate firms, national convener of the BJP’s IT cell Amit Malviya, BJP state president Hemant Khandelwal and ministers of the Madhya Pradesh government dismissed the allegations as “baseless… bereft of substance” and “politically motivated.”
However, the party is silent on the investigation’s key findings that the Yadav family’s land holdings doubled between 2021 and 2023, when Mohan Yadav was a Minister, and doubled again between 2024 and 2025 after he became Chief Minister.
@yansan Why would the Pathans care where Chauhan is going? Don't they mostly live in Khyber-Pakhtunva and Afghanistan?😑😑. We have turned into a country fo chest-thumping imbeciles.
@adamcohenhillel@0xAmol Dude, you literally serve(d?) in a genocidal army's intelligence wing. John hamm in a prayer cap and keffiyeh can't wash blood from your hands. You are a war criminal.
Israeli asset David Lammy said the following,
“It's clear to me that it's wrong to bomb a refugee camp, but clearly, if there is a military objective, it can be legally justifiable.”
If Israel tells him there’s a military objective it’s ok to kill children seeking refuge.
Israel destroyed the mausoleum of Simon Peter, apostle of Christ, in the village of Shama in southern Lebanon 1,925–1,995 years old
Christians of the world Wake up !!!
