Jump To Comment: 2 1That bruising and the way in which it occurred is an utter disgrace. That any person would be exposed to such brutality in any country at the hands of the military &/or police force is unacceptable. That this beating occurred when this man was acting in good faith in an innocent, selfless gesture - that deserves applause - to check that a person known to him was ok [clearly a justifiable concern as it turned out] should put the fear of God into every right thinking person.
This wasn't in Djibouti or some backwater of Kolkota. This extreme abuse of a man's most basic human rights happened in a supposedly sophisticated part of the world [as far as acknowledging, or more paying lip service to, human rights goes].
How long can ordinary decent people who happen to disagree with the power of the stick under which they're forced to survive be subjected to such violence, intimidation and corruption at the hands of the British military?
Why are we not seeing people like Geoffrey Robertson, who took Julian Assange's case, who claim to defend the rights of those being subjected to such state sanctioned abuses and whose voices are crushed by the abusers, jumping to defend this man Meehan now and pursuing the British state for its repulsive violations of Mairtin Og Meehan? He has no crime and not even an allegation of any crime (which would not be justification for the beating and bruising at any rate) yet he's beaten, made to live in fear and degraded at will by the very powers that are supposed to protect citizens. Aren't they?
How is this stopped people?
