Lebanese justice and authorities refuse to conduct a review of his trial, in blatant disregard
of Lebanon’s international commitments.
The CLDH (the Lebanese Center for Human Rights) has been following this case for many
years, and has decided through this report to let the world know Youssef Chaabane’s
desperate situation, this man who has been denied his rights for so many years.
Each day is one more day behind bars for Youssef Chaabane who has literally been
forgotten for 14 years in the Central Prison of Roumieh in Lebanon and is the victim of not
just one, but several, egregious violations of justice.
This report is a call for Truth and Justice, for a fair and independent justice.
This report is a call to all those who refuse that in Lebanon, like anywhere else in the world,
people are being tortured and indefinitely and arbitrarily denied their freedom.
This is a call to action, to quick action, in order to free Youssef Chaabane and to demand
that the truth be told about this case. |
