The Federal Government has rejected as unfounded, claims that it is making a political scapegoat out of a Sydney man arrested on terrorism charges. [Scapegoat for the Coalition of the Killing's resource war's in the Middle East.]
But that's like rejecting what you had for breakfast!
Medical student Mr Izhar ul-Haque, 21, is accused of training with a Pakistani based terror group when in fact he went home to see his family.
Mr Ul-Haque's family has denied the charges and in a statement confirmed by their lawyer Adam Houda it has accused the Government of trying to score political points with the arrest.
And for turning a young man upside down and inside out in the (HRMU) High Risk Management Unit at Goulburn Correction Centre.
On Friday I was contacted by a prisoner at the HRMU who told me that he was just informed that all outgoing and incoming mail will be stopped under the heading *Now we have terrorists and that validates Cruel and Unusual Treatment or Punishment.*
The family says ul-Haque is a top achieving medical student who was in Pakistan to attend a family engagement.
Mr Houda says the arrest was based on information handed to police several months ago. The family is also concerned that just two hours after the arrest, federal politicians were commenting on it.
But speaking on Channel Seven, Foreign Minister, [war criminal], Alexander Downer denies the arrest was baseless.
"He's been arrested and charged as you know so there obviously is information in relation to him but the broad point here is the whole question of linkages between individuals in Australia and more broadly internationally," he said.
[The link here is Australian propaganda and just plain rubbish.]
Downer also says ul-Haque's arrest is testimony to the good work done by the country's security services. [Again propaganda and just plain rubbish using the AFP and ASIO as an instrument for political posturing.]
Downer: "Mr ul-Haque is innocent until he's proven guilty, but it reflects the hard work and effectiveness of the Federal Police and our intelligence agencies that they're tracking people down who at least allegedly are involved with terrorist organisations," he said. "I think that gives the public confidence that our agencies are doing a good job."
[Err, that gives us knowledge that the Federal government is despotic.]
By Just Us 19 April 04
THE WOMBAT: Channel 7 was hand delivered a dossier by war criminal Alexander Downer, which they ran this morning on Sunrise to back up Downer's claim. Question is what does the corporate media get out of spreading propaganda and lies for the Howard Government?
When I complained that the prisoners housed at the HRMU were being denied their mail since October 2003, which included authorities. Justice Action sent authorities to be signed by the prisoners to deal with their medical complaints, because the prisoners hands were tied.
No-one including the Corrections Health Service, the Ombudsman or Human Rights and Equal Opportunity Commission would help. Even though the prisoners medical complaints fell on deaf ears, because the prisoners were self-harming due to the conditions.
The Ombudsman as follows, Mr Vince Blatch Letter dated 8 January 2004,
" Corrections Health staff provide medical care. However, its staff's authority is essentially limited to making recommendations to corrective services on treatment. Corrective Services staff can then decide what treatment can be given."
Now corrective services we are told can agree to medical treatment or not over and above trained medical staff?
So we sent our Authorities into the prison with the Prisoners Legal Service as follows,
Will Hutchins Senior Solicitor PLS dated 16 March 2004,
"I returned from leave yesterday. Prior to going on leave I sent the authorities to Manfred Dougall & Company, solicitors who do visit for us at Goulburn Correctional Centre. For your information, I enclose copy of their reply dated 26/2/04 advising of their unsuccessful attempt."
The Human Rights and Equal Opportunities Commission's Ms Rocky Clifford sent Justice Action a letter dated 16 April 2004 after we made a complaint to them as follows,
"I also note that your concerns fall into the second category. Under the Act "human rights" is strictly defined and relates to those rights and freedoms recognised in the provisions of the international human rights instruments scheduled to or declared under the Act, such as the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights.
The provisions that relate to human rights require that the subject matter of complaint arises from an act or practice of the Commonwealth government.
These provisions are therefore not applicable to an act or practice of the NSW Department of Corrective Services.
I note that it is not apparent that any of the individual prisoners that you mention are being held by the NSW Department of Corrective Services on behalf of the Commonwealth. Therefore, the conduct about which you complain does not constitute a breach of human rights as defined by the HREOC.
If Justice Action is not an organisation that would be providing legal representation and assistance to the prisoners, then it does not appear to be the case that the Department is denying these prisoners legal assistance by any refusal to allow Justice Action to access them."
If the idea that now we have alleged *terrorists* housed at the HRMU and now collectively all the prisoners housed there including the alleged terrorists will not receive or send mail at all then how do the prisoners including the alleged terrorists tell people who care what difficulties they are faced with?
Especially when the prisoners are self-harming and no one not even a Legal Aid Lawyer can get in to represent them. These prisoners are being denied their right to legal assistance; their right to give instructions, their right to waive their privacy in order to get and receive community support.
These are extremely urgent matters that involve fundamental human rights of communication, which we complain about for ourselves and for all those concerned. Prisoners at the HRMU are the most vulnerable in the State and need continuous access to assistance without any blockage or even perception of blockage.
High Risk Management causes mental illness and self-harm and you should be very alert and alarmed and if you see Alexander Downer approach him and tell him he is a war criminal but be careful because he is armed and very dangerous.
Sending people, especially young people to the HRMU is very dangerous to their mental health, screw the politics of fear.
