Urgent appeal: Former Guantanamo detainee, Abdel Aziz Nadji, sentenced to prison in Algeria
Written by CP Editor Tuesday, 31 January 2012Abdel Aziz Nadji was held in Guantanamo for 8 years without charge or trial. He was sent back to Algeria against his will where he tried to rebuild his life. However, he was suddenly rearrested and jailed.
Detention is often a time of great distress, taking the person imprisoned away from his family and friends and immersing him in an unknown environment.
In such a situation, a simple letter can be sufficient to lift the spirit of those detainees and ease the hardship through which they are going.
Former Guantanamo prisoner, Feroz Abbasi said: "The odd letter from a person I didn't know in the outside world gave me a lot of strength, particularly because I felt we had been abandoned by the world - especially the Muslim world."
