Victims of HealthQuest Abuses in N.S.W. Australia Contact Amnesty in London

John Harrison | 12.02.2008 05:03 | Health | Repression | Social Struggles | London

On several occasions since 1995 victims of the N.S.W. Government Medical Office, HealthQuest, have contacted Amnesty International in London. We have yet to receive a response. Soviet psychiatry is being used against dissident public servants and whistleblowers in N.S.W. Australia. HealthQuest is staffed with psychiatrists and psychologists who are prepared to diagnose for money and power. We hope that this time, Amnesty will finally launch an investigation into our plight.



Dear Amnesty,

We, the victims of HealthQuest, have contacted you on a number of occasions since 1997 and we ask that you investigate HealthQuest, the N.S..W Government Medical Office.

We have been attempting
since about 1995 when we formed a loose association of victims to
have someone outside Australia believe us and perhaps publicise our
plight. These abuses are happening at HealthQuest, which is the N.S.W.
Government Medical Office. It may be difficult for you to believe that such
psychiatric abuses can happen in Australia.

While we know of only one case of forced incarceration (a fireman from
Sydney who found out that his superiors were lighting fires for
insurance claims) the mental suffering and poverty inflicted on us for
the rest of our lives, having been diagnosed falsely as mentally ill
and then stripped of our employment in the public service or teaching service,
is something we will never recover from.

You could do a google search of "HealthQuest corruption" or "N.S.W.
Government Medical Office", "Dr Helia Gapper" or "Dr Peter Dodwell"
which should turn up quite a lot.

Here are a couple of other links.

We ask for acknowledgement of our plight. At times we lose hope that the world will ever believe us.
