The latest was Monday, brief though it was. It appears that the case has been continued to January.
Here's Choudhury's account of this week's proceedings. And here and here are two of the latest solid contributions to the strong, growing international chorus of support for justice for this very brave man.
Faster. Please.
Update: Congressional Resolution on Behalf of Salah Uddin Shoaib Choudhury -- ACTION ALERT!!!
On November 14, Representives Mark Kirk (R-IL) and Nita Lowey (D-NY)
introduced a Congressional Resolution urging the Bangladesh government to
drop all charges against Muslim journalist Salah Uddin Shoaib Choudhury and
cease all other forms of harassment against him. I have attached the
Resolution, House Resolution 1080. It will be voted on before Congress
adjourns at the end of this year.
Please contact your Congressional Representatives and urge them to support
House Resolution 1080. Please encourage everyone you know to do the same.
This is an issue that both Democrats and Republicans are supporting, and we
must get it passed by a huge margin. This is our chance and the Congress's
chance to make a strong statement for justice and against radicalism, and
help save the life of this very brave man. You should contact your current
Member of Congress who was in office before the recent elections.
Please act now and get everyone you know to act.
If you have any questions or need further information, please do not
hesitate to contact me at 1-847-922-6426 or via this email address. You can
also find more information at www.InterfaithStrength.com.
Thank you.
