Britain Allows Terror Suspect To Go Free On Bail

 

Terror suspect Abu Rideh has been freed on bail as a result of pressure over the government's treatment of foreign terror suspects. Initially housed in Belmarsh prison, he was transferred to Broadmoor Hospital last year due to his mental condition.

The House of Lords ruled last year that the holding of several current terror suspects without a trial violated European human rights legislation.

Although the Home Office decided not to oppose Mr Rideh's bail application, they have stated that he is still a threat.

  finally, justice  
 Finally, some justice in the UK, cutting down on Britain's transistion into a nazi-fatherland status of justice. If you don't have evidence, then you don't really have enough to arrest them on, let alone to hold them indefinetly. The men responsible in Labour should have been sent to the war crimes tribunal (or equivalent for this crime) for that.

  Fair poin Paladin.. but  
 It's far better to arrest someone early and find them innocent than try to arrest someone AFTER a terror attack. As unfair as it is to the individual arrested (who, let's be honest, has gotta be "dodgy" in the first place to get into that sort of trouble), I'd rather a nazi state that prevented terrorist attacks than an anarchist rabble of people free to roam "because they haven't done anything YET"

  right  
 because if you're a terror suspect, it's better to let you get out on bail(and hope you don't blow yourself up and kill a thousand innocent people) than keep you incarecerated and 'violate' your human rights...

They said themselves that he is still a threat... Seriously, this European attitude doesn't bode well for the continent's safety.

 daniel, there's more than the two extremities of nazi-state or anarchist-state! people shouldn't be locked up for no reason. on many occasions people have jokingly said something like "i have a bomb" or "i'd like to see bush dead", these people are not terrorists but we still see them getting arrested, which in my opinion is wrong, and not the sort of nonesense country i want to be living in. if you have good evidence that someone is scoping out an area, and has a means of delivering an attack, then you can go QUESTION them, you can only arrest them if you have something pretty incriminating (ie: evidence). Locking people up indefinetly was defined as illegal and immoral a long time ago for a reason.
