LIFE BEHIND BARS IN GUANTANAMO BAY

with Br Martin Mubanga (Former Guantanamo Bay Detainee)

Date: Sunday 19th June 2005
Time: 11.00 am - 1.00 pm
Venue: Froud Centre, 1 Toronto Avenue, Manor Park, London, E12 5JF

Martin Mubanga was arrested in Zambia in 2002 and held at for nearly 3 years before being released without charge earlier
this year. The former detainee from London will talk about what he
saw and heard, including the abuse and torture of prisoners, threats
of sexual assault, and the desecration of the Qur'an.

Dr Adnan Siddiqui will give a presentation on the Cage Prisoners
campaign, highlighting the despicable condition of the hundreds
of prisoners still languishing in the Guantanamo concentration
camp and practical ways of helping them. This will be followed
by an appeal by Hhugs (Helping Households Under Great Stress),
a charity set up in 2004 to provide support to families who have
had their loved ones detained in UK prisons, such as Belmarsh
and Woodhill, since the introduction of new laws since 9/11.

Come and learn first hand about what has happened, and is still
happening, in Guantanamo Bay. Please don't bother coming if you
are a cynic who thinks they've heard it all before or believes
it is a waste of time highlighting the plight of our brothers
because they deserve it. All welcome to attend.
