4.9/5 (12075 ratings)

Description:Following the introduction of internment without trial in August 1971, Fr Raymond Murray and Fr Denis Faul began a campaign to highlight the torture and ill treatment of many internees and to seek justice on their behalf. They were particularly concerned about those who were subjected to sensory deprivation techniques and who became known as the Hooded Men. This campaign resulted in the publication of the same name, published in 1974. This unprecedented and truly ground-breaking composition was later to form the bedrock in the fight for truth, justice and accountability in the case of the Hooded Men.In the original case, brought to the European Commission, the finding of torture was subsequently overturned and downgraded to ‘inhuman and degrading treatment’. However, in 2014, through the work of many people across all corners of civic society, new evidence was discovered which fundamentally undermined the basis for the original finding. It indicated that the UK had deliberately misled the European Court. The Irish government accepted in court in December 2014 that they would apply to reopen the case of the Hooded Men. That case is now reaching a climax.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
