The American electorate needs to become aware of the reality of Islam. I believe that it is better for us to learn from the suffering of others than to experience it directly The message below includes the translated text of several threatening letters. Notice how the Muslim refers to Christians as dogs. They consider us to be less than human. See how they assert that Allah will reward them for killing Christians. Take due notice and vote against any candidate who does not curse and condemn Islam.`
Most of my posts are highly abstract, they deal with the doctrines of Islam, documenting them but not delving into the human level realities on the ground. The message reproduced below gives us a rare glimpse into the real impact of Islamic supremacism & arrogance on one Christian family in Pakistan. It shows us how Shari'ah is used to violate the human rights of Christians in a Muslim majority nation. It shows how justice is denied to them. Read it and curse Islam. Share it with your family, friends and congregation. Lets make the world painfully aware of the real personal impact of the AssWholliness which is Islam.
The following is a letter that I am forwarding to you in hope that you will forward it to your pastors and congegrations and friends, or post on your blog sites. Thank you for any help you can give.
Compared to other parts of the world being a Christian in this country is a very easy thing. It requires relatively little sacrifice or courage. I have a friend in Pakistan who is requesting help. She is living in hiding with her mother, brothers and sister and her father is in prison facing death. This all because her father refused to stop working for their church, even after it was burned down by a mob of locals.
In a country where local governments and police answer to Muslim clerics, where women are imprisoned for the “crime” of being raped and young Christian girls are routinely kidnapped and forced into Muslim marriages, or mutilated with acid for refusing marriage Hector Aleem has had the courage to speak out against these things in the name of Christ. For this he has been imprisoned with the charge of blasphemy.
He has refused to renounce Christianity and convert to Islam. Converting to Islam would be the easy way out. It would solve his problems and ensure the safety of his wife and children, but he knows, like the missionaries recently beheaded in Somalia, that this is something a true soldier of Christ can never do. When he is called up before council he lets the Holy Spirit speak. Hector is a well respected Christian and human rights activist. Prior to his arrest he was awarded a national peace award by the Prime Minister of Pakistan.

There is only one lawyer who will defend Hector and the family is having trouble raising the $2,500.00 needed to pay his fee. She is also asking for help in making this persecution widely known. I will be distributing this information to some media outlets and other churches to try to gather support for Hector and his family. Please pass this information on to your congregation to request their support and whatever help they can give. Like our military soldiers our soldiers of Christ deserve whatever support we can provide.
Hector’s children can be contacted by going to the Facebook group dedicated to the freeing of Hector. They are listed as admins.

Following are some emails from Hector’s daughter Mehwish giving more information about the case against her father and threats made against him and her family from their Muslim neighbors. She also provided me with photocopies of the original documents translated below.
Thank you,

I have translated this document
So here it is
Application to lodge FIR for 295BC
Respected sir,
To the senior superintendent of police Islamabad
It is requested that on August 2008 some officials of CDA destroyed a Church in Rawal Town in the guidance of Captain Faiz. and they insulted the crucifix and threw the Holy Bible into the garbage, and beat men and women and locked them up into the lockup of Shehzad town, and than set them free after the protest. We protested against all these officials but no action has been taken against them yet. Christians are still peace fully protesting against them that these officials should be terminated from their jobs because they insulted the Holy Bible and The Crucifix. Christian community is very angry for this incident and these officials are creating bad reputation of Pakistan. that is why it is requested to you to please take action against them and arrest them in a Blasphemy offence.
This is the start of the case. The CDA(capital Development Authority) has destroyed the Church and insulted the crucifix and than my father gave this application to file a case of blasphemy against them and on the contrary they filed the same case against my father.

Translation of threat letter
"Kausar Parveen, wife of Hector Aleem,
"We know where you and your children live. This blasphemer [Hector] has been arrested because of us, now take care of yourself. As I told your husband, no one will be left from his generation. We will destroy your whole generation. You are Christian and it is a good deed to kill you. My Allah will be very happy if I kill you.
"That bastard's bail had been rejected because of us. Now it's your son's turn. I will keep your daughters, and then you can call your Americans and Germans. Your husband is a traitor and his torment has just started, you just wait for your turn. We are very close to you. You can't hide from us. If you all want to save yourself then there is only one condition: Just embrace Islam. Allah will be happy for you; we only want this.".
And the translation of Threat Letter No. 2
"Kausar Parveen, wife of Hector Aleem,
"Toilet cleaners, Christians. You all deserve to be shot with a gun. First your husband blasphemed against our beloved Prophet Muhammad, and now you don't want to get punished? Remember! If there comes a bastard judge who releases your husband, then we won't leave your husband. Even If you try to leave this country, then we won't let you go easily. I am proudly announcing that Sunni Tehreek will be responsible for your death. Go and show this letter to anyone. We can sacrifice every life on our beloved Prophet."
Email 4, Details and history:
I know it is very lengthy and very detailed but you can take important point or reduce them. so here it is
My father Hector Aleem was arrested on the midnight of 21 January 2009, the police raided our house with large number (50 policemen) of policemen some of them were in uniform and rest of all were in plain clothes, they trespassed our house without any lady police. They beat my father and my mother and my siblings (my sister 25 and two brothers 13, 18); they started to destroy everything in our house and also broke and insulted the picture of Jesus Christ. We kept on asking them that what is the problem and who are they and what is happening but they didn’t tell us anything and continued beating us. They also looted our house and took jewelry and 50,000 rupees. Then they took my father to some unknown place, at that time he was wearing trousers and a shirt, they didn’t let him wear any warm clothe or shoes (that was the month of January and the temperature was approximately -1 degree Celsius). They took him bear footed,(my father wasn’t well and next day he had an appointment with a heart specialist and a surgeon). Than we called the emergency police and told them that we don’t know who took my father (because we didn’t know that if they really are policemen), than at 3 Am we received a call in our residence that my father is in Shalimar police office Islamabad. I and my mother went to the police station and took some warm clothes and his medicine and shoes but when we reached we weren’t allowed to give him any of these things neither these things were provided to him by the police. We again asked them about the case that why he is in police custody and what has he done but nobody told us about the case than after 24 hours we came to know that he has been arrested in a blasphemy case. Than my father was supposed to be brought in front of the judge and than any legal process was suppose to be done but nobody took him to the judge and they secretly took him to the Rawalpindi (the twin city of Islamabad). My father was kept hungry for 24 hours, he is a heart patient and had his angioplasty two years ago but he was beaten by the police severely and was tortured mentally and physically. The Investigation Officer Zafar Iqbal abused him and told him that he will beat him till death and will kill my both brothers and make us (me, my sister and my mother) Muslim. The judge gave him 15 days remand and the policemen beat him for 15 days with the order of the judge who was also a Maulvi having long beard.
The case is registered in R.A Bazaar police station Rawalpindi. According to the FIR (first information report) an unknown person sent a blasphemous sms to the leader of a Sunni Tehreek. The sim card was not registered so they searched for the culprit. When they saw the list of the persons the culprit contacted, they found many names, but in the list the only Christian name was my father’s, he made a call to my father. No other person whom the culprit called was arrested, not even called for investigation. The culprit contacted 90 people and none of them is included in the investigation. It seems that my father has just been trapped in a false case so that they could let him down. My father did not send the blasphemous message he was arrested only because he was the only Christian in the list. According to the law of Pakistan an individual cannot be the complainant of Blasphemy case. Law says that no Blasphemy case can be registered without permission of Magistrate and only higher police officer can be complainant of a blasphemy case, but the complainant in my father’s case is an individual Maulvi (Muslim religious leader). The police are favoring him and the case is registered unlawfully but still my father has spent 14 months in jail.
HISTORY
My father Hector Aleem is running a NGO with the name of Peace Worldwide, established in 1996. when he planned to establish Peace Worldwide at that time we were living in Karachi, but when he started to work for Peace Worldwide some robbers broke into our house and tried to kill my father, (they actually wanted to kill him because of his work) they kept him on gun point for 2 hours but some how they left the house, and took some electronics and money and jewelry. But as they didn’t kill him they continuously tried to kill him that is why we left Karachi and reached here in Islamabad.
Peace Worldwide is registered with the government of Pakistan and has special consultative status with Economic and the Social Council of United Nations. Peace worldwide was working on Human Rights without any discrimination for Christian and Muslim. Peace Worldwide was working on Blasphemy Law also and has highlighted and solved some of those cases. There were many schools running under Peace worldwide in some important cities of Pakistan but in 2004 these schools were closed by the pressure of Maulvies because they accused my father that he has been teaching Christian teachings to the Muslim children, the threat letter is attached. He was also attacked by the Islamists and his left foot was fractured because of that attack, report is attached. An Islamic Organization Shabab Mili was responsible for this attack. Than an employee of Peace Worldwide Irfan Khokhar was killed brutally by some Islamists.
Than in August 2008 my father started work on a Church (Chak Shehzad Church in Islamabad) destroyed by CDA (capital development authority) at that time my father started to receive verbal threats by some Islamic group, but he didn’t stop and continued working for the destroyed church than one day police arrested two men having 70 bullets and two guns and they told police that they were instructed to fire all 70 bullets into my father’s chest. Eight criminal cases were lodged against my father because he was still working for the destroyed Church. But he was declared innocent by the court. In simple words the Islamists tried very hard to finish my father because they wanted him to quit his work.
When they tried everything and nothing happened than they lodged the blasphemy case against him, he was arrested in January and the remaining of the Church in Chak Shehzad was demolished by the CDA in May 2009. Than two police officers came to my father in jail and they told him that they will file so many cases against him that he will not be able to bear them and he could not be free for many years. After that they started many other cases against him and they used to take him to the police station from prison and beat him and torture him in front of the Maulvies and Taliban from Peshawar.
The website of Peace Worldwide was hacked now it is blocked by the government but when you search for the website you will find a note that the account has been suspended due to the non payment of the bill. I am also attaching the e mail from the hosting company of the website. The website of Peace Worldwide was closed with a lame excuse that this website contains some material against Islam (told by an employee of the hosting company verbally they didn’t mention it in the e mail) which isn’t true.
I really don’t know the current situation of my father because we aren’t allowed to meet him in the jail; he is not being treated well in the prison. He is 51 years old, a heart patient who used to take his medicine regularly but now he is not even allowed to take his medicine. When he has his hearing a large number of mob gather outside the court and raise slogans against my father and Christianity and tells judge that they won’t let him out, if the judge will free him they will kill him outside the court. These are the words of the lawyer of Sunni Tehreek. We went to the minister of Law and Justice Mr. Farooq H Naik, he told us to visit his joint secretary but when the joint secretary heard about the blasphemy law he suddenly became furious and told us that my father would get sever punishment.
My father was very active in Human Rights that he was awarded a Peace Award by Mr. Yousaf Raza Gillani the prime minister of Pakistan and he was also invited by Mr. Asif Ali Zardari the president of Pakistan and many other important politicians of Pakistan ( the reason to tell this is he has a positive and good reputation). All invitations and pictures are attached.
Right now my father is in jail and we are hiding ourselves in a house, we usually don’t go out neither any of us is doing a job or studying. We have left our house and our studies; we can’t go out because we also have received two threat letters. Letters are attached.
To contact the jail authority, you can write to him I don’t know his name but your letter will reach him, the address is
The superintendent of Jail
Adiala Jail
Rawalpindi
Pakistan
And his phone number is 0092 51 5574786
Just ask for the superintendent of jail. And don’t tell them anything against Islam or anything negative about the government of Pakistan but you can tell them the world is watching and they should take care of him and the family should be given the permission to meet him. And they should provide him a doctor and he should be given his medicines.
I am also giving you other important phone numbers and addresses.
