<div dir="ltr">Dear Shahzad and friends in ONI, <br><br>It indeed is an act of great concern on the commitment of the freedom of expression. We stand united against this incident. Further, this should not create an opportunity for others to hurt the good work that is happening at IGF. So, +1 for the idea of registering the concern about the incident with concerned stakeholders/authority. <br>

IGF.</font></div>
