ACTION ALERT, 19Jul2009: Mahmoud AbuRideh Hospitalized After Self Harming

The caseworker for Mahmoud Abu Rideh received a telephone call at 11.06pm yesterday evening from a WPC based at Fulham Police Station informing him that Mahmoud Abu Rideh was in hospital after self-harming.Our caseworker went to visit him at the hospital and discovered that Mahmoud Abu Rideh had repeatedly slashed his left arm with a razor. Mahmoud Abu Rideh said that he felt the room spinning and heard voices saying “The Home Office will never let you leave; they are just going to keep you driving around in circles.”

For those of you of those who might not be aware, Mahmoud was detained 2001 under anti terror legislation and to date he has not heard the secret evidence against him, he has been tried and detained without charge.

This current event is the most recent example of the damaging effects that control orders have had on him, (and on others), and the Home Office refusing to comply with a perfect valid and reasonable request.

ACTION REQUESTED

We are asking everyone to write to the Home Office to expedite his departure from the UK as authorized by the high court

We would also like to devise a Rota of brothers to spend nights with him
