international / rights, freedoms and repression / event notice Wednesday November 08, 2006 17:20 by free prison-scapegoat
cells not fit for a dog caused a fire that killed and maimed asylumseekers and a person who was put in there because he was visiting his child who was kept in the Netherlands while he lived abroad. Now the finger is pointed at one of the victims and he is mede into a scape goat. It is a miracle he survived the Dutch prison for so long as many die in there. The governement does not print exact figures of the amount. Regularly prisoners have to go a full day without water. There is no way they can sit or lie down without cooling off too much and the light and cold make it a torture. read full story / add a comment

The ongoing Omagh civil litigation has been listed for 16th April 2007 when the case is expected to finally get under way. Even at this early stage, many observers in the legal profession consider it, as being prejudiced, deeply flawed and under the present format it can only return an unfair and dishonest judgment. The British authorities have the case structured in such that it will deny the defendants any hope of defending themselves in the case. read full story / add a comment

Central American Free Trade Agreement- Hugo Chavez's got a new Friend.

Ortega promised to uphold the trade agreement and will probably be buddies
with Hugo Chavez, which will displease Bush, however given Ortega's recent
aqquistion of God and anti-women voting- not overtly concerned.

The exit polls are suggesting Ortega is in the lead after 15% of the Ballots
have been opened, the liberal party are polling 7% and they are the nearest
political rivals. read full story / add a comment
