ABOUT
If we do not fight to protect those without a voice, who will?
Having fought battles of her own since she was a young child, Rabia has had to overcome abuse and discrimination. Since then, her strong sense of justice and equality lead her to become a criminal and human rights lawyer, where she continued to battle against terrorism and criminals of war.
However, her battle against injustice took an unexpected turn after she returned from a horrifying hostage situation in Basra. After successfully negotiating the release of two SAS soldiers from the Iraqi insurgents, the British authorities buried her achievements, while awarding her male colleague with a Military Cross. In a landmark discrimination case, Rabia fought for justice against the UK Ministry of Defence, and won.
Rabia has since dedicated herself to giving back to the community and many not-for-profit organisations, inspiring others to stand up for equality.
From diversity to positive change, Rabia is one to always lead by example.

BOOK - CD - WEBINAR
Rabia Siddique’s fascinating memoir chronicles not only a legal career dedicated to the pursuit of justice for herself and others, but also the life events that have shaped her. With extreme honesty and insight, Equal Justice details her personal experience of the effects of racism, childhood sexual abuse, and later balancing a career with being a mother to triplet boys.
Despite the challenges and injustice Rabia has faced, Equal Justice is far from bleak – her writing style is concise and engaging, allowing the book to cover far more than can be described in a brief review. Due to Rabia’s unique perspective, Equal Justice is an inspiring read that will appeal to a wide audience, and is a must for anyone interested in justice, human rights and international affairs.
