DESCRIPTION:Protest outside the Court of Appeal in London on 1st November 2001 - the 
 day the court is giving its judgment in the case of Ms Samar Alami and Mr 
 Jawad Botmeh, two Palestinians wrongly convicted in England in 1996 of 
 conspiring to cause the 1994 London explosions at the Israeli Embassy and 
 Balfour House.  They are innocent, and most of the evidence against them 
 related to their campaigning work in support of Palestinians in the 
 Occupied Territories.  Furthermore, the prosecution have admitted that they 
 are withholding vital evidence about the identity of a known terrorist 
 organisation and/or government, unconnected to Samar or Jawad, that was 
 apparently planning to carry out the bombings.  During the appeal hearing 
 the judges also refused to allow the defence to call a new witness to give 
 evidence about a further possible suspect that he had reported to the 
 police around the time of the bombings.   \nThe British government and 
 security services are determined to keep Samar and Jawad in prison for 
 crimes they clearly did not commit, all in the interests of political 
 expediency and protecting whatever vested interests require that the truth 
 be covered up.\nPlease lend us your support, either by joining the protest, 
 or by flooding the government and the court with emails in support of Samar 
 and Jawad.\nMore details on our website: www.freesaj.org.uk\n
