The Italian courts finally admitted their mistake and cleared Medhanie Tesfamariam Berhe of these bogus charges. It is an absolute disgrace that it took this long to release an innocent man they wrongly imprisoned. We forced them to acknowledge the truth despite their stubborn refusal to listen for years.

On May 24, 2016 the Sudanese security forces kidnapped Mr. Medhanie Tesfamariam Berhe and handed him over to European authorities. After holding him for a year, Italian authorities are currently prosecuting him as if he were Medhanie Yedhego Mered, a notorious and illusive human trafficker responsible for egregious crimes and human rights violations.
Repeated pleas with Italian authorities that they are holding an innocent person, who himself was a victim of human trafficking, went unheeded. Even the wife of the wanted fugitive (Medhanie Yedhego Mered) confirmed that the man in custody was not who Italian authorities say he is.
Yet, Italian authorities continue to reject our calls and have continued to hold Mr. Medhanie Tesfamariam Berhe .
We call on you to use your good offices to reason with the Italian authorities and help in securing the freedom of an innocent man, who is clearly a victim of mistaken identity.
We urge the Government of Italy and the European Union to immediately release Mr. Medhanie Tesfamariam Berhe, apologize to him and consider to compensate him for whatever damages he may have suffered in wrongful imprisonment.
Thank you for your kind consideration and we look forward to your urgent and favorable action on this pressing matter.

السلطات الإيطالية تعتقل شاب ارتري يدعى مدهاني تسفاماريام ِ اعتقادآ منها انه مدهانى مردء (المهرب المشهور المتهم بالاتجار بالبشر).
وقد تم حبسه لاكثر من سنة رقم انه اخبر بانه ضحية تطابق الاسماء.
ومن هنا ننادي لكافة الارتريين بمطالبة السلطات الايطاليا الإفراج الفوري للضحية مدهانى تسفاماريام , والاعتزار له عما مسه من الضرر .

The Italian authorities are still actively destroying an innocent man's life while ignoring the truth. Everyone needs to blast this link out right now so we hit one hundred signatures before they can pretend we are not watching.

This is not the trafficker you have the wrong person, for God sake please , why don't you check the DNA of the trafficker son/daughter with the innocent Medhanie, cause I heard the trafficker wife and son/daughter are in Europe .
It’s a disgrace that this innocent young refugee is still detained after every bloody sigle witness and piece of evidence confirmed he is not the trafficker! . Shame on the Italian authorities detaining an innocent man to cover up their incompetence and mistake
We Eritreans residing abroad urge the goverment of Italy and EU for the release of Medhanie Tesfamariam Berhe and also he should be compensated for the damage incurred (mentaly, moral,physical,) for the time he has been detained unlawfully.
I believe the Italian authorities have the wrong man in custody but they do not want to admit their mistake and release the innocent Medhanie Tesfamaruam Berhe. This is a great mis Justice and abuse of power on a country that pride itself on being democratic.
I now this two medhanies very well because I grow up with meda in the place called gezabanda and the other one in libya so the arrested one is not the guilt one you guys arested the young medhanie with out anything so plsease make something ,thanks .
Justice will be served
He is innocent.

I have travelled through Medhanie Mereid’s boat in 2014 May 05 and arrived after two days. Please leave this guy and I have never seen this boy . I had seen two to three times and Medhanie Mereid had pulled me When we step up to big boat. Leave this Guy as soon .
