Central East Correctional Centre

Central East Correctional Centre: Loubani and Greyson, who recently returned to Canada after a six-week detention in an Egyptian prison, visited Central East Correctional Centre to demand the release of immigrant prisoners who say they are being held unjustly, according to CTV. At least one detainee at the facility has remained on a hunger strike for the past 48 days and Canadian activists Tarek Loubani and John Greyson visited a jail in Lindsay, Ont., on Monday to demand the release of nearly 200 immigrant detainees held under indefinite detainment. The 191 migrants began their protest in September after they were relocated from the Toronto West Detention Centre to the facility in Lindsay. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
