Abousfian Abdelrazik - Another Victim of the "War on Terror"

An interview with Yavar Hameed, lawyer for Abousfian Abdelrazik. Mr. Adbelrazik is a 46-year-old Sudanese Canadian currently held in a kafka-esque limbo in Sudan. Evidence has been presented that Canadian officials have provided information to Sudanese officials and encouraged them to arrest and interrogate Mr. Abdelrazik. The case looks very similar to other torture and rendition victims. Mr. Hameed discusses the role of Canadian officials in styming efforts to repatriate Mr. Abdelrazik. The case exposes - again - the double standards of canadian citizenship and the racist machinations of the "war on terror".
