Federal Government: Muayyed Nureddin

Muayyed Nureddin: In a brief to the UN committee, the human rights group says it is profoundly concerned that Canada has not heeded the committees call to provide redress to Abdullah Almalki, Ahmad El-Maati and Muayyed Nureddin, according to The Star. All three are suing the federal government , though the cases have dragged on in court for years and OTTAWA Canada is obstructing efforts to compensate three men who suffered torture in Syria effectively ignoring a key recommendation from the United Nations Committee against Torture, says Amnesty International. The three Arab-Canadians were brutalized in Syrian prisons, in part due to lapses by Canadian agencies documented by a federal inquiry in 2008. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
