Skriv brev om frigivning av politiska fångarna

BRAHIM KHALIL HAMUDI TAYEB, mer känd som BRAHIM SABBAR, generalsekreterare för ASVDH, the Sahrawi Association of Victims of Grave Human Rights Violations Committed by the Moroccan State, sitter sedan mer än ett år i det beryktade Svarta fängelset för protester mot den olagliga marockanska ockupationen av Västsahara.

Han har, tillsammans med ett flertal andra fångar, genomfört tidsbegränsade hungerstrejker mot den brutala och förödmjukande behandlingen i fängelset. Hans hälsa sviktar: högt blodtryck, matsmältningsproblem och synstörningar.

Den 25 februari gick han och många andra västsahariska fångar, bl a Said Elbaillal och El Wali Amidan, in i en hungerstrejk utan tidsgräns. Hälsolägret blir snabbt sämre för fångarna.

ASVDH uppmanar till protester och krav på ovillkorlig frigivning av alla de politiska fångarna, t ex i brev till följande mottagare:

LETTER ADDRESSED TO THE MOROCCAN GOVERNMENT

I/We have been following with the utmost concern the degradation of the human rights situation facing the Sahrawi population under Moroccan occupation. This is a consequence of the repressive system established in the Western Sahara territory through the deployment of multiple security forces that have ill-treated, kidnapped and tortured peaceful Sahrawi demonstrators, and the persecution and harassing of human rights defenders, impeding the exercise of their fundamental rights, and the free expression of their legitimate right to self-determination.

I am equally alarmed by the situation of the political prisoner BRAHIM SABBAR, Secretary-General of the ASVDH organization, as well as the unknown number of Sahrawi political prisoners in the prisons of El-Ayoun, Ait Meloul, Tiznit, Inzegan, Bouzakaren, Salé and Kenitra. These prisoners have been tortured, interrogated, subjected to unfair trials and condemned in an illegally way. Some have beome internationally recognised as prisoners of opinion.

In the face of this grave situation of humiliations and violations of their fundamentals rights against international human rights conventions and International Humanitarian Law, I DEMAND:

The immediate and unconditional release of BRAHIM SABBAR AND ALL THE SAHARAWI POLITICAL PRISONERS.
