To the Seekers of Justice

Urgent attention needed!!!

On March 19, 2014, after what essentially amounted to false rumors and allegations,

twenty-three Trinidad and Tobago Nationals; men, women and children were arrested in

Venezuela on suspicion of terrorism. Among them were three Imams (Muslim leaders).

Six days after the four women and eleven children were release. After 45 days the three

Imams were released. Their fellow Nationals Wade Charles, Dominic Pitilal, Leslie

Daisley, Asim Luqman and Andre Battersby are still being held up to this day without

charge. Court proceedings were and continue to be marked by a complete and utter

lack of proper judicial process and legitimate evidence to substantiate the allegations.

The Truth: These five citizens of Trinidad & Tobago have been detained in Venezuela

since March 19, 2014 without being charged, to date.

The Truth: On March 25, 2014 these five citizens of Trinidad & Tobago among 8

Nationals were ACCUSED of attempting to destabilize the Venezuelan government and

to assassinate the President without being charged, to date.

The Truth: These five citizens of Trinidad & Tobago throughout their imprisonment they

have been placed in horrible conditions when all they are NOT GUILTY of any crime.

The Truth: These five citizens of Trinidad & Tobago have families who are now

struggling emotionally and financially, children who are innocently deprived of the

opportunity to be in the comfort of their fathers.

We, the undersigned individuals, Trinidad and Tobago nationals, family, relatives,

friends, well-wishers, sympathizers, businesses, governmental and non-governmental

organizations who are advocates of justice and fairness ask the Trinidad and Tobago

government to demand justice and call for the immediate and unconditional release of

our Nationals Wade Charles, Dominic Pitilal, Leslie Daisley, Asim Luqman and Andre

Battersby.

We aspire that Trinidad and Tobago be a proponent of democracy by enabling our

nationals to carry out their religious obligations without fear of retribution and by

empowering diverse voices for the purpose of building a greater Trinidad and

Tobago with tolerance, civil liberties, understanding and equality.

Please proclaim justice and freedom for our citizens.

Thank you!

Respectfully,

Br. Hisham Muhammad
