Next Legal Battles
At long last we are celebrating Omar’s release from prison. However, there are still legal battles ahead and the violation of Omar’s rights must be properly remedied.
Our focus now should be on helping Omar’s lawyers with their mounting costs.
Upcoming court challenges include:
- May 14th - Supreme Court hearing - Federal government appeals Alberta Court’s decision that Omar is serving a Youth sentence;
- September 2015 - Federal government’s appeal of Judge Ross’ decision to grant bail to Omar;
- Ongoing appeal to the Court of Military Commission Review in U.S. to vacate all Guantanamo Bay “convictions”.
