Dr. Lynn Jones, MP |
| "Often because somebody or because a person that is arrested for a particular crime, perhaps behaves foolishly or maybe has been involved in some other lesser criminal activity, it seems to give the authorities carte blanche to set them up for more serious crimes. And it certainly looks as if this is what has happened in this particular case, where even the judge said there was no evidence that these two young people were actually involved in planting the bomb and yet they have been sent down for 20 years." "We all together will continue to put pressure on the government to do the right thing in releasing the information which cold help prove Samar and Jawad's innocence. I never thought we will still be campaigning on this kind of issue." |
