The charges against Afshan Azad’s family

Afshan Azad claims that on May 21 2010, her father and brother threatened to kill her and assaulted her.

Afshan Azad is reportedly staying in London with friends. Both her father and brother are not allowed to travel to London when the case is being heard.
