Aafia should be treated as terrorist if extradited: US

[Devil Soul]

ISLAMABAD - The US has asked Pakistan to admit that Dr Aafia Siddiqui was a terrorist and her conviction by the US court was justified, making it a compulsion for her extradition to complete the remaining part of her imprisonment in Pakistan. According to a private TV channel, finally the conditions of the prisoner swap deal likely to be signed between the US and Pakistan for the extradition of Dr Aafia has come to the surface. The US has offered two deals to Pakistan for the extradition of Dr Aafia. According to the documents acquired by the channel, the US has asked Pakistan to admit that Aafia was a terrorist and her conviction by the US court was justified, making it a compulsion for her extradition to complete the remaining part of her imprisonment in Pakistan. Under the deal, the US has also forced Pakistan to admit that she was arrested from Afghanistan for trying to shoot three American soldiers. The deal also clarified that only those prisoners will be exchanged who have been found guilty by the courts, adding that prisoners like Dr Shakil Afridi will be exempted from the agreement since he was not born in the US. Earlier, it was found that the US offered two deals that include European Convention on the Transfer of Sentenced Persons and Convention on Serving Criminal Sentences Abroad for the extradition of neuroscientist. Meanwhile, it was also revealed that the Interior Ministry had formed a taskforce following the US offer that held its first session on July 3 to review the agreement. The taskforce was established under the directives of Interior Minister Nisar Ali Khan. The Pakistani neuroscientist was sentenced to 86 years in prison after she was convicted of grabbing a US soldier’s M-4 assault rifle and trying to shoot a group of FBI agents and soldiers at an Afghan police compound in July 2008, a charge she consistently denied during the trial. - See more at: Aafia should be treated as terrorist if extradited: US | Pakistan Today | Latest news | Breaking news | Pakistan News | World news | Business | Sport and Multimedia

[Argus Panoptes]

This news is only according to a private news channel in Pakistan. Is there any confirmation from official sources thus far?

The extradition treaty will only ease the extraction of more people like Raymond Davis after committing crimes in Pakistan. While we'll be forced to oversee that the extradited Pakistanis will complete their term, Americans will be off the hook back home.

This is no extradition... it sounds more like some sort of give and take business.

Please, correct me if i'm wrong.... poor lady was an American national and US army killed, her kids because she was wife of Khalid Sheikh Mohammad and knew bit more than necessary.

Incorrect.

She was a US green card holder but never a US citizen. She is a PAKISTANI national, 100%.
