Lord Tariq's correspondence to Foreign Select Committee
08 March 2022

Finally, after 7 long months of the Nowzad team having to endure the relentless pressure of the media and too many MPs (who should have known better) pushing the false and damaging narrative of Operation Ark being ‘pets over people’ we have been proven right.

The mental stress and anguish cannot be down played.

Two horses at the brick kilns were down to their final days — exhausted by extreme labour, malnutrition, and with nothing left to give. Our team knew they wouldn’t survive another day. Thanks to the incredible generosity of Ricky Gervais from his Mortality tour, we were able to step in, secure their release, and give them a second chance — transforming their lives from “work force” to safety, rest, and dignity.

Thanks to expert care at the Nowzad Animal Hospital and his trusty wheelchair, he’s now a bundle of energy! And the best part? A forever family is waiting for Sparky in the US — they’ve even prepared custom ramps
