It was reported that officials in the Don Prison have promised to change the inhumane treatment of the three detainees and "presumed innocents", Fahim Ahmad, Zakaria Amara and Mohammed Dirie, after the Toronto Star Reporter Tom Walkom article.
However, nothing was changed in the conditions of detention! The treatment continues with relentless effort by the prison officials to make the lives of these three "innocents until proven guilty" young men miserable and unbearable.
To us, this is clearly a political vendetta against the accused. They are supposed to be held in custody until they are tried and found either innocent or guilty. Until then, the role of the prison is to make sure they are detained. Just detained, not sentenced or punished.
This kind of practice is what the governments of the so-called "free world" supposed to stand against and condemned. It seems that we, here in Canada, are catching up fast to the 3rd world dictatorship governments in that regards.
We urge you to sign the petition and make your voice heard to restore what belongs to these young men; the right to be treated as innocents until courts say the final word.
