What is "alkarama"

Alkarama ( / ISO 233: / ) is an independent Swiss-based human rights non-governmental organization established in 2004 to assist all those in the Arab World subjected to, or at risk for, extrajudicial killings, disappearances, torture, and arbitrary detention. Acting as a bridge between individual victims in the Arab World and international human rights mechanisms, Alkarama works towards an Arab World where all individuals live free, with dignity, and protected by the rule of law.

Despite their heavy involvement in noble human rights causes, the group has been accused by the U.S. Treasury Department of having links to Al Qaeda, largely due to their founders.
