Adil Charkaoui: "After five and a half years, show trial begin"

"After five and a half years, show trial begins --- without evidence."

Starting Tuesday, December 9th, Adil Charkaoui will be subjected to part of the public portion of his Secret Trial, though it has just been revealed that CSIS has failed to provide evidence even to the court, let alone to Adil and his lawyers.

This is the first time in Charkaoui's case that a court will begin to publicly consider the "reasonability" of the Security Certificate that was issued against him.

It promises to be a veritable show trial: no charges; no evidence (apparently not even the judge has evidence to back up CSIS's secret reports); secret suspicions (Adil himself isn't even allowed to see the secret reports); low standards (the judge is not supposed to decide whether the allegations are true, but only whether they are "reasonable").

Meanwhile, secret hearings between the judge, the government and two special advocates have already taken place.

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.
