Free the Captives: Witness Against Illegal Detention and Torture

Bloodshed continued in Iraq Sunday, but at a lower level than earlier in the week. There was also no news Sunday Feb. 26 of the fate of Tom Fox and the other CPT peaceworkers held captive there. Sunday likewise marked the deadline stated by the captors of US reporter Jill Carroll for her execution. However, there was no news of her fate either.

Once again, we plea for an end to violence in Iraq, and the immediate safe release of Tom Fox, the three other CPT workers, Jill Carrolll, and all other captives. Our call includes a demand for release of the many Iraqis held without cause by Coalition forces there as well.
