Barack Obama regime attempts to gag torture victim

Barack Obama regime attempts to gag torture victim

Why is a innocent man going to have to report to the police when he has got nothing to hide and the UK and US authorities have got something to hide?


"Binyam Mohamed has agreed to abide by several voluntary security measures including regular reports to a police station when he returns to Britain from Guantánamo Bay almost certainly later today, the Guardian has learned.

His lawyers readily agreed to the undertakings as Mohamed "has nothing to hide", said Clive Stafford Smith, director of Reprieve, the human rights group which represents the former British resident.

However, Mohamed and his lawyers rejected a gagging order the US tried to impose on him, the Guardian understands. Mohamed's return to the UK after seven years in custody, more than four of them in the US camp on Cuba, comes as pressure is building up on the British and US governments to disclose evidence of his alleged torture and what the UK agencies MI5 and MI6 allegedly knew about it".

7 years in custody for nothing, tortured by the UK and US authorities. And, they have the cheek to talk to us about terrorism? If what Binyam Mohamed has gone through is not terrorism, and I don't know what is!
