Tumor, wheelchair, but still hopeful
Since Nazima’s reasons for applying for asylum were so obvious, we could not imagine that anything could go wrong, but it turned out differently. For almost nine months (!) the procedure was in ...
This young woman is a well-known athlete in her home country: 20-year-old Nazima Khairzad won Afghanistan’s first medal in alpine skiing, ran three marathons and climbed the highest mountain in her home province of Bamyian, Shah Fuladi (5064 meters). When the Taliban threatened to kill her, she fled through Pakistan and Italy to Germany with the support of the Polish travel blogger Eva zu Beck.
In November 2021, the Taliban murdered Nazima’s teammate from the Bamyian ski club. Nevertheless, according to European asylum law, she could be deported back to Italy any time because she entered the EU there. The newly elected Italian government has been extremely tough on migrants.
Our appeal for donations will be mainly used to fund a lawyer for her asylum application and possible procedural costs. Any surplus will be used to support her family, who fled to Iran to escape the Taliban, Nazima herself and the refugee relief organization Kabul Airlift. Nazima is currently living in an asylum center in Hanau.
