10:18Now PlayingExMuslim and feminist activist Zara Kay, the founder of Faithless Hijabi, was arrested in Tanzania on December 28th, where she was held in police custody without a clear indication of charges for 32 hours, after which she was released on bail. She returned once more to the police station on January 6th and is currently awaiting a court hearing. The local authorities appear to be focusing on the charge of not returning her Tanzanian passport after gaining Australian citizenship, from amongst the original three charges against her which also included social media posts critical of the government and the use of a SIM card belonging to a family member. Simon Sirro, the Tanzanian police chief, informed the BBC that Zara is now only being questioned over her citizenship status. Since she obtained Australian citizenship in 2018, Zara has not used her Tanzanian passport and regardless, Tanzanian passports like hers have been made invalid for over a year. Sources on the ground believe that the charges against Zara were initiated by some members of the Khoja Shia Ithnasheri Jamaat community. Whilst first in police custody on 28 December, Zara was asked about the work of her organization and why she left Islam.
