Unusual we know but the moneychain from the NGOS is slow and this is one of a number of these videos. We know, like all of our media graduates, #TeamTonkolili delivers, even if they have to ride 3 to a bike over mountains to do it #FridayFundraiser#EndFGM
They need our help to run an emergency media campaign to get information out to their people on damage done through FGM. Please sign up to support them on our website https://t.co/4Q1GsuESPi And thanks to those have already pledged £10/month to do so #EndFGM#FridayFundraiser
URGENT APPEAL! #TeamTonkilili in Sierra Leone remains on the trail of FGM initiations in the region and there are many. This from yesterday as a group of children are led through the streets on their way to an initiation ceremony where they will be cut. #FridayFundraiser#EndFGM
Social researcher Kameel Ahmady was detained on Sunday and kept at Evin prison, his wife Shafagh Rahmani announced the news on Instagram. Ahmady has worked on extensive research into FGM and child marriage in recent years. Rahmani said no reason has been given for his detention
Reports indicate British-Iranian anthropologist Kameel Ahmady was arrested on Sunday, August 11. Ahmady’s wife Shafagh Rahmani reported the arrest on Tuesday, August 13.
My take:
#Iran's regime, facing int'l isolation, resorts to known practice of taking dual nationals hostage.
British-Iranian cultural anthropologist Kameel Ahmady has been detained in #Iran's Evin Prison since Aug. 11, his wife Shafagh Rahmani said on Instagram. Rahmani added that he has a one-month detention order but she has not been given "information about why he was arrested."
