The cases of Pakistani citizens handed over to the US under a rendition program after the 9/11 attack continues to pile up in the courts. One of such cases is that of Pakistani neuroscientist Dr Aafia Siddiqui. She was handed to the US authorities on terrorism charges. Now the High Court of Pakistan has begun to hear the case, giving hope to her family that the victim would be repatriated to her homeland. Press TV's Javed Rana has the details.
