Release Ashraf Al-Jailani from his Unjust Detention

Ashraf Al-Jailani was arrested and detained by the INS and the FBI on Oct. 23, 2002. He has been held in detention in York, PA for over a year without reason. The FBI has alleged that he is a threat to National Security, yet they have never interviewed him or charged him. They have no evidence to support their claims. Ashraf is being held simply because he is an Arab Muslim living in post 9/11 America. We demand that this kind and gentle man be returned to his family, who has been destitute since he was taken away.
Ashraf received a domestic violence conviction in 1998, from which the INS issued a deportation order. However, Ashraf's conviction was pardoned by the governor of Ohio. Regardless of the pardon, the INS and FBI arrested him on Oct. 23, 2002, and have kept him in detention ever since. The FBI has alleged that he's a threat to Homeland Security, but they have put forth no proof whatsoever to back up their claims. They have not charged him with anything. They just continue to hold him, keeping him away from his wife and 3 small children. This indefinite detention must end, and Ashraf must be returned to his family in Ohio. Al-Jailani and his wife have suffered cruel and unusual punishment by our government. Please support just treatment for Ashraf Al-Jailani and his family and for all the foreign-born prisoners who are being unfairly detained in American prisons. America is supposed to be a country of justice.
