Security Certificate Injustice for Mohamed Harkat: Nine Years On
Submitted on December 11, 2011
By Justice for Mohamed Harkat Committee - December 9, 2011
This weekend...marks the ninth anniversary of the detention of Mohamed Harkat under a security certificate -- a draconian detention under the so-called Immigrant and Refugee Protection Act for which no charge is laid, and the information on which the allegation is based is kept secret from the detainee and their lawyers. The five Muslim men who have been detained since 2001 have been jailed in isolation or...released under strict house arrest conditions -- the strictest in Canadian history.
