Canadian Lawyer: Sathi Aseervatham

Sathi Aseervatham: Sathyapavan "Sathi" Aseervatham said he was held for a year without charge in a Sri Lankan prison, beaten with plastic pipes, and forced to go without food and water, according to an affidavit arranged by his Canadian lawyer, according to CTV. The affidavit is dated Oct. 29, 2012, and notarized by a Sri Lankan justice of the peace. Sathis lawyer, Gabriel Chand, said it was impossible to make it public while Sathi was alive because it would put his client at risk and A Tamil man who was charged with organizing a ship that brought about 500 migrants to Canada from Sri Lanka was brutally tortured after he was deported, according to a document obtained by News. My body was thirsty for water and when I asked for water they beat me, it reads. They blindfolded my eyes and I was locked in a small cage with my hands tied up behind my back and no clothes for many days. I could not count the days because it was dark and cold and I was fully naked." (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
