JAGGI SINGH REFUSED ENTRY INTO ISRAEL
Montreal. December 14, 2002 -- Jaggi Singh, a Montreal-based writer and social justice activist, has been denied entry into Tel Aviv.
He flew out of Montreal last night and arrived in Tel Aviv today at around 6:30 PM local time (11:30 AM EST). He was stopped at customs and questioned for several hours before being refused by Israeli officials.
Jaggi is refusing to leave Tel Aviv voluntarily.
He was able to contact the Canadian consulate, who then informed his contact-people in Montreal that Israeli authorities had refused him entry for "security reasons."
Jaggi is now in detention, and lawyers in Tel Aviv have been contacted on his behalf.
Jaggi was travelling to the occupied territories to write about the realities of the Israeli occupation of Palestine. Jaggi is well known in Canada and abroad for speaking out against injustice in the many forms it takes.
You can pressure the Canadian embassy in Tel Aviv to intervene with Israeli authorities in order to have Jaggi released from detention and allowed Israel.
The contact information for the embassy is:
Telephone : +011-972-3-636-3300
Fax : +011-972-3-636-3383
E-mail : tav...@dfait-maeci.gc.ca
Please cc your emails to and...@tao.ca.
You can also put pressure on the Canadian Department of Foreign Affairs and International Trade (DFAIT) to intervene on Jaggi's behalf. You can call DFAIT at 613-944-6788, or toll free (from within Canada only) at 1-800-267-6788.
As of Monday morning, you can also ask to speak directly to Myra Pastyr-Lupul, the person in charge of case management at DFAIT. She can be reached at 613-944-9094. We will continue to send updates about Jaggi's situation as we receive more information.

Ceci est un média alternatif de publication ouverte. Le collectif CMAQ, qui gère la validation des contributions sur le Indymedia-Québec, n'endosse aucunement les propos et ne juge pas de la véracité des informations. Ce sont les commentaires des Internautes, comme vous, qui servent à évaluer la qualité de l'information. Nous avons néanmoins une
Politique éditoriale
, qui essentiellement demande que les contributions portent sur une question d'émancipation et ne proviennent pas de médias commerciaux.
This is an alternative media using open publishing. The CMAQ collective, who validates the posts submitted on the Indymedia-Quebec, does not endorse in any way the opinions and statements and does not judge if the information is correct or true. The quality of the information is evaluated by the comments from Internet surfers, like yourself. We nonetheless have an
Editorial Policy
, which essentially requires that posts be related to questions of emancipation and does not come from a commercial media.
