Jaggi Singh was travelling to the occupied territories to write about the
realities of the Israeli occupation of Palestine. Jaggi is well known in
Canada and abroad for speaking out against injustice in the many forms it
takes.
You can pressure the Canadian embassy in Tel Aviv
(www.dfait-maeci.gc.ca/telaviv) to intervene with Israeli authorities in
order to have Jaggi released from detention and allowed Israel. The contact
information for the embassy is:
Telephone : +011-972-3-636-3300
Fax : +011-972-3-636-3383
E-mail : [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Please cc your emails to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
You can also put pressure on the Canadian Department of Foreign Affairs and
International Trade (DFAIT) to intervene on Jaggi's behalf. You can call
DFAIT at 613-944-6788, or toll free (from within Canada only) at
1-800-267-6788. As of Monday morning, you can also ask to speak directly to
Myra Pastyr-Lupul, the person in charge of case management at DFAIT. She
can be reached at 613-944-9094.
We will continue to send updates about Jaggi's situation as we receive more
information.
