Saeed Maasarwe has expressed a hope and a wish that “people in Israel – all the people – the Jewish and the Arabic people, come [together] to be humanity”, in comments made to The AJN on Sunday.
Together with his eldest daughter Noor, Saeed is visiting Australia from Baqa al-Gharbiyye near Netanya, to attend the sentencing of his daughter Aiia’s killer, and for the launch of Project Rozana’s Aiia Maasarwe Memorial Medical Fellowship, Program. The initiative was established in honour of 21-year-old Aiia, who was raped and murdered in Melbourne in January.
