=============================

Hollywood-based activists are praising  Kathryn Bigelow’s Oscar-nominated “Zero Dark Thirty” and calling on its cast and crew -- as well as the teams behind all of the Best Picture-nominated films -- to draw attention to the plight of Dr. Shakil Afridi, a pivotal player in bringing Usama bin Laden to justice.

Bob and Kira Lorsch and their RHL Group took out a full-page ad in Thursday’s Hollywood Reporter with the headline: “Oscar, Help Free Afridi. America’s Abandoned Hero.”

The ad, part of the group's “Free Dr. Afridi” campaign, reads in part: “Dr. Shakil Afridi is the man who verified Usama bin Laden’s location in Pakistan for the United States. Without Dr. Afridi’s sacrifice, we may not have pinpointed the location of the world’s most dangerous terrorist. His Reward… he was abandoned, captured and is still being tortured by Pakistan ever since Bin Laden was killed in May 2011. After all, who will stand up to help America next time if this is how we treat our friends?”
