Dear all the bus burning case against Soofiya Madni should be withdrawn. it looks biased from the very begining.
however, i dont approve this procedure of protest, those who indulge in burning buses and other material need to know how it creates pollution in the atmosphere. some procedures simply become obselete with the passage of time, and they should be creative, sensitive to the nature. We should be strong add environmental concerns as and when we speak about human rights violations. Times are changing very fast and so should our perespectives about violations change too... Be it human beings, animals or trees etc... with love inder salim On Thu, Dec 17, 2009 at 8:40 PM, venukm <[email protected]> wrote: > > > > ---------- Forwarded message ---------- > From: venukm <[email protected]> > Date: Dec 17, 7:39 pm > Subject: Justice for Soofia Madani > To: Green Youth Movement > > > I think the statement has already been endorsed (by me) through a > link in face book. > Anyways, like to reiterate support for all future democratic > initiatives in this regard. > > Best, > K.M.Venugopalan > > On Dec 17, 12:18 pm, Mahtab Alam <[email protected]> wrote: > >> Dear All, >> * >> Find below the statement for endorsement and a rough translation of the >> madhyamam editorial on the issue.* > >> *Kindly endorse,forward and recomend it for endorsement. * > >> regards, >> hany. > >> We, a group of concerned citizens from different walks of life,have come to >> know that the Kerala police has charge sheeted Soofiya Madani for her >> alleged involvement in the 2005 Kalamassery bus burning case.
