Protests mount against Libyan trial

Article Abstract:

Scientific and human-rights organizations have rallied to the cause of six medical workers imprisoned in Libya, accused of deliberately infecting hundreds of children with HIV. Although many human-rights groups have supported the six in the past, the Supreme Court ruling led to a false sense of security and international pressure to free the medics dropped and the call by a Libyan prosecutor at the end of August 2006 for the death penalty came as shock.

Article Abstract:

The liberation of six medical workers held for eight years in a Libyan prison on false charges is due to the determination of a few European diplomats. These medics were not given a proper trial and scientific evidence was ignored, indicating that it is time for Libya to face up to its AIDS problem and also to promote health care.
