Bring Binyam Home
The US intend to try him by a military tribunal on the basis of statements made during his torture in Morocco, and the charges carry the death penalty. It is impossible to beleive he can get a fair trail - the evidence extracted by torture would not be admissable in any proper court.
Six years of torture and abuse have left Binyam suffering from severe depression, post-traumatic stress disorder and in a very poor physical state. He is currently on hunger strike.
Next week, on 29/30 July there is a hearing at the High Court in London to attempt to force the British government to release evidence it has about Binyam's torture - there will be a demonstration outside the court from 10.30 am (Royal Courts of Justice, Strand, London WC1), organised by the London Guantanamo Campaign.
There is a vigil next Friday, Aug 1, outside the US Embassy in Grosvenor Square from 6-7pm - and on the first Friday of each month, and a regular monthly stall outside Ladbrooke Grove Underground station - the next is from 1-3pm on 16th August. There will also be an action at the Notting Hill Carnival.
