Shaker Aamers Children Speak About Their Father And Make A Plea for His Return " No British national or resident has returned from Guantánamo Bay without intervention at the highest levels by the Prime Minister or the Foreign Secretary. The government has been able to secure the release of all other British prisoners, so why not Mr. Aamer after eight years? The British government must show its commitment to human rights and the rule of law by ensuring that Mr. Aamer is released from Guantánamo Bay and returns to his family in the UK immediately. It must also demonstrate its verbal commitments to helping the US close Guantánamo Bay. It is the very least the government can do ". Aisha Maniar - from the London Guantánamo Campaign (LGC)
" UK Resident Shaker Aamer has been held in the harshest of conditions in Guantánamo without charge or trial, for eight years - this is concentration camp justice. Our Government has recognised his legal right to return and has requested that the US release him. Shaker was cleared for release by the US in 2007. His only wish is to return to his home in the UK, he has a home and family in the UK. Shaker’s treatment is in breach of his human rights, he is the victim of gross injustice. His health has deteriorated and his life is at risk. His wife and four young children, who are British citizens, are being denied the right to a family life which should be guaranteed under international law " John Clossick, from the Save Shaker Aamer Campaign (SSAC)
