Free Mumia Abu-Jamal! Prepare now for emergency protest at the US Embassy in London!

Mumia Abu-Jamal is a former Black Panther Party spokesman, supporter of the MOVE
organisation and an award-winning journalist known as the “voice of the voiceless”. He was
framed up in 1982 on false charges of killing a Philadelphia police officer. Sentenced to death
based on his political history and beliefs, Mumia has spent 25 years on death row for a crime
he did not commit.

See below, contact the PDC or visit www.partisandefense.org for more information.

On 17 May, the Third Circuit Court of Appeals in Philadelphia heard oral arguments in Mumia’s
case and there could be a decision at any time.

If the Third Circuit Court of Appeals rules to uphold the death sentence or denies Mumia’s
appeals for a new trial or hearing, the Partisan Defence Committee calls for protest:

Mumia Abu-Jamal is an innocent man!
Free Mumia now!
Abolish the racist death penalty!
