Jun 10, 2007 - So... very sad indeed. Her only crime was; improving the lives of other Afghan women.

Jun 14, 2007 - Zakia Zaki's story is inspirational, powerful and, needless to say, painful. It shows us that women continue to operate under severe constrains in Afghanistan, despite the 'fall of the Taliban'. It also shows how women like Zakia are able to create change, however limited their space is.

Jun 26, 2007 - Zakia's courage is humbling. Her story should inspire all of us to commit ourselves to making the world a better place because it now one brave soul poorer without her.

Jun 8, 2007 - Shame on the cowards who murdered Zakia Zaki. These bastard murderers think they could feel superior by killing an innocent woman. Hope you burn in hell for committing such a shameful crime. Wish Zaki's family my sincere condolenses and Zakia jan RIP.
