[Bloquez l'empire!] [KADER] 600 Days: Update and Audio

KADER - 600 DAYS IN SANCTUARY

Over 600 days since taking sanctuary in St. Gabriel's catholic
church, Abdelkader Belaouni continues to demand an immediate
regularisation of his status. Despite a broad base of local, national
and international support, Kader's demand remains unacknowledged by
Immigration Canada officials.

We urge you to continue supporting Kader, and to stay tuned in the coming
week and in coming months for actions you can take.

In the meantime, be sure to check out recent radio broadcasts featuring
Kader, direct from sanctuary. Details are below:

(2) CBC RADIO SPECIAL FEATURING KADER (THURSDAY AUG. 23rd)

On Thursday August 23rd, CBC Radio re-broadcast a feature length interview
with Kader that was
originally featured on the CBC's 'the Current,' the most listened to
radio show in Canada. It can be listened to in whole at :
www.cbc.ca/thecurrent/2007/200705/20070515.html.


(3) PRISONERS JUSTICE DAY (AUGUST 10th CKUT ARCHIVE)

PJD began in 1975 in Millhaven Penitentiary (Kingston, ON) to
commemorate the first anniversary of the death of Eddie Nalon, a
prisoner in segregation awaiting medical assistance. Over the years,
prisoners continue to recognize the day by fasting and refusing to work.
Community groups and family members organize solidarity events outside
prisons.

10 a.m. Immigration and "Security"

This hour was hosted by Kader B from sanctuary at St. Gabriel's church
in Pointe St. Charles. To listen to the broadcast, visit:
http://secure.ckut.ca/64/20070810.10.00-11.00.mp3.

Since they were first introduced, security certificates have been hailed as
a violation of fundamental rights, as prisoners are detained in the name
of national security without trial. Matthew Behrens speaks about the issue.
Later in the hour, we talk
to Sophie Harkat, spouse of Mohamed Harkat, who was detained under the
security certificate process and remains under house arrest.

Then, stay tuned as we speak to Benamar Benatta, subject of the first post-
September 11 rendition case. He speaks on his experience of being
unlawfully rendered to American authorities and his time in a New York
detention center.
