Update on Israeli kidnap of humanitarian boat and passengers

category international | rights, freedoms and repression | news report author Wednesday July 01, 2009 21:58author by Justin Morahan Report this post to the editors

No attorney allowed to passengers in detention

At a Press Conference today Free Gaza say that passengers on the boat kidnapped by Israel are held in a detention centre and are not allowed to see an Attorney.

The plight of Palestinians who are also incarcerated in Israel is mentioned and a request is made for world-wide help and action for them also

"Update on kidnapped passengers, impounded boat, and the right for EVERYONE to see an attorney

Journalists' House

Aglantzia, Nicosia 2120, Cyprus

Greta Berlin (English)

Caoimhe Butterly (Arabic/English/Spanish):

(Larnaca, 1 July 2009) Yesterday, the Israeli Navy boarded the Free Gaza Movement boat, SPIRIT OF HUMANITY and kidnapped the 21 human rights activists, humanitarian workers and activists on their way to Gaza. As of today, none of them have had the right to see an attorney even though they came to the detention center to see them.

The Free Gaza Movement is calling for their release and the release of our boat, seized in international waters off the coast of Gaza as our SPOT locator clearly shows.

But more importantly, twenty-one internationals can get headlines. What about the 11,000 Palestinians who languish in jail, many of them tortured. We will update you on the status of our kidnapped passengers and our impounded boat, but who will do the same for the Palestinians and their boats?

We will insist that Israel stop interfering with our voyages to Gaza, since they do not have the right; legal or moral, to enforce a siege that collectively punishes 1.5 million Palestinians.

Our demand is that our passengers re-board the boat and continue on to the port in Gaza, so we can deliver the building supplies and the humanitarian supplies that we loaded and inspected by the Cypriot authorities".
