Shaker Aamer

EDM number 245 in 2012-13, proposed by John McDonnell on 20/06/2012.
Categorised under the topics of Human rights and North America.

That this House welcomes the demonstration in Parliament Square held on 16 April 2012 by the Save Shaker Aamer campaign to highlight the fact that British resident Shaker Aamer has been imprisoned without trial or charge for over 10 years in Guantanamo; and calls for a new initiative by the Government to secure his release and his return to his British family in the UK, given the worrying concern that his health is now seriously deteriorating to the point that his lawyers have stated that he is gradually dying in Guantanamo.

This motion has been signed by a total of 22 MPs.
