The Free the Fort Dix 5 Support Committee & Project SALAM
Rally In Support of
The Fort Dix 5
Five Muslim Men Targeted by
Preemptive Prosecution
Appeal to be Filed
Tuesday, August 31, 2010, Noon
The appeal to the Federal Appeals Court in the Fort Dix 5 case will be filed today. Many people believe that five Muslim men, Dritan, Eljvir, and Shain Duka, Mohamad Shnewer and Serdar Tatar were preemptively prosecuted by the use of a long and costly FBI “sting” operation that resulted in their convictions and long prison sentences (four men received life plus 30 years). All five men are still in prison — hundreds of miles from their wives and children and families. Three of the men - Dritan, Eljvir, and Shain Duka are serving their sentence at the ADX in Colorado, spending 23 hours a day in tiny cells. Mohamad Shnewer is in the special Muslim prison, called the Communication Management Unit in Marion, Illinois. Appeals in their case will be filed today. This rally is to bring attention to the terrible injustice done to these five innocent men, and hope that the Appeals Court will realize that there is no evidence at all that these men are terrorists.
