Khurram should be reunited with his family immediately! His children should not have to grow up without his loving presence. Each day he is imprisoned, is a day robbed from them!
Join his family in the call to #FreeKhurramParvez!
“We are historians of the present. We are writing the history for our future generation so they know what we have gone through — and why it is not possible for us to compromise and to surrender.” – Khurram Parvez, 2011 #FreeKhurramParvez

Speaking about HR is not a crime. Documenting violence is not a crime. Being a memory keeper of people’s stories is not a crime. Refusing to forget is not a crime. Seeking peace and justice for all is not a crime. The world needs voices like Khurram Parvez. #FreeKhurramParvez
Join us in demanding the unconditional release of Khurram Parvez. Khurram’s arrest is a silencing not just of his voice but has a chilling effect on all those who demand truth, justice and accountability. Thread on his important work:

Latest from Srinagar: “Please bring some cash for us. Can’t find any functioning ATMs anywhere now.”
Anything that was left of life in the dark valley is now buried under snow.
#Kashmir.
Srinagar looks emptied of its citizens: Instead of being crowded with civilians, streets are awash with armed soldiers; instead of traffic jams, spools of concertina wire. People remain inside with no phone, Internet or cable TV service. @NihaMasih. https://t.co/EVlHuwm62k
Surreal scenario. Lawyers under arrest. Lawyers unable to come to court so cases dismissed. No orders can be posted because postal services disrupted. And hundreds of arrests n illegal detentions. My story
