Shaker Aamer - 11 Years in Guantanamo

Parliament Square, London. Wed 13 Feb 2013
 
 A 'Heritage Warden' comes to tell the protesters they cannot stand on the kerb around the grass

 or attache their banners to the posts in the grass which is GLA property. I'm surprised they don't tell him to get lost

 But the protesters keep to the pavement, which the GLA don't have any control over.

 There are enough protesters for banners along the length of the square, with others handing out leaflets across the road

 Green MP Caroline Lucas comes over to talk to the protesters and give her support

 

 
 
Shaaker Aamer was illegally rendered to Guantanamo 11 years ago 
      
and despite twice having been cleared for release is still held there - and is still being routinely beaten and shackled by the guards 

He has never been charged with any offence 

And was 'cleared' for release 5 years ago
