Urgent: Hanging Set Tomorrow, 4:30 A.M.

Aftab Bahadur was sentenced to death as a child. He made a false confession after brutally tortured. He is set to be hanged at 4.30am tomorrow, despite both witnesses against him recanting their evidence.

Take action to stop Aftab’s execution now

The plans to execute Aftab come just hours after a last-minute stay of execution was granted to Shafqat Hussain. It is a scandal that just hours after one child is given a last minute stay of execution, Pakistan prepares to hang another. Both Shafqat and Aftab were sentenced to death as children after brutally tortured into making false confessions.

Aftab has been on death row nearly 23 years, well over half his adult life.

“The execution of this innocent man, arrested and tortured as a child, should immediately be halted,” asserts Reprieve today.
“President Mamnoon Hussain has the power to stop this execution. Email now and ask him to grant mercy to Aftab.”
