Guardian report on fake "ricin terror plot" An Algerian man, cleared by an Old Bailey jury in the "ricin terror plot", may be sent back to Algeria where he will face the strong possibility of being tortured by the state security forces who have a long track record of this practice. Human rights groups Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch have condemned the decision by "Special Immigration Judges". The "independent watchdog", Lord Carlisle, has described AI as "thoroughly naive" and in response three of the jurors from the Old Bailey trial have issued a statement saying that they were shocked at the "unfair and unjust sequence of events". |
