Report on the International Month of Actions for Georges Abdallah
As we reported before, on September 21th the month of actions began for Georges Abdallah, communist political prisoner of the French State. This year, 39 years have passed since his imprisonment, which makes him the political prisoner that currently has been the most time in prison in all of Europe. Also in June, his tenth appeal to be expatriated back to his native country, Lebanon, began. This campaign this year is done with special force to give support and achieve his release of life imprisonment for struggling against imperialism and all kind of reaction.
For this campaign a joint statement has been issued. It is currently signed by 55 organizations from and outside the French state.
