Justice for Talha Ahsan
Talha Ahsan has been imprisoned without trial for over four years while fighting an attempt
to extradite him to the US to face "terrorism" charges. Talha Ahsan has never visited the US and says that any case
against him should be heard in Britain. He denies any involvement with terrorism.
His extradition to the likelihood of long-term solitary confiment in the US would violate the UN Declaration of Human Rights and the European
Convention on Human Rights.
