    Noor’s friends start GoFundMe campaign for a strong legal team

    Social media is enraged after the brutal murder of Noor Mukadam in Islamabad. Amid all the different stories done by various news outlets, what people want right now is that the authorities punish her murderer, Zahir Jaffer.

    Noor’s friends and friends of her family have started a GoFundMe campaign to raise funds to hire a strong legal team to bring Noor’s killer to justice.

    “As friends of Noor and friends of her family, we cannot watch her life flicker out without getting justice. Zahir Jaffer comes from an extremely well-connected and wealthy family. He and his parents have already secured legal representation from the best lawyers in the city, and they have the resources to fight this battle endlessly,” GoFundMe campaign for Noor stated

    “We, as friends of Noor, are launching this campaign so that as her family grieves their beautiful daughter, they do not have to carry the additional burden of worrying about how they will afford the legal representation they need for bringing Noor’s killer to justice,” it added.

    The money raised through this campaign will be used to fight Noor’s case. “Going by past experience, this will likely be a lengthy process, spread over multiple stages of litigation. Our total has been calculated to account for all of this, and all proceeds raised through this platform will be used to directly fight Noor’s case.”

    The campaign aims to use the remaining funds (if any) for the victims of domestic violence. “In the event that any funds remain, they will be directed to aid victims of domestic violence.”
