London, UK. 9th December 2016. Inminds human rights group protesters outside the Foreign & Commonwealth Office calling for the UK government to act to free British citizen Fayez Sharary who has lived here more than 23 years. After visiting family in Palestine this September with his wife and 3-year-old daughter they were arrested at the West Bank border with Jordan on their way home. His wife and daughter were released after 5 hours of ill-treatment, but Fayez was tortured in an Interrogation Centre in Israel for 3 weeks until he signed a forced confession on 6th October. A judge dismissed the confession because it was obtained by torture and granted Fayez bail, but the military kept him locked up and later overturned the judge's decision; he remains in jail, with his next hearing set for December 14th. The British embassy has provided no support at these hearings and the government has failed to take any action to demand his release. The protest was also against HP (Hewlett Packard) who provide the IT services and infrastructure that enable the Israeli Prison Service (IPS) to function. Peter Marshall/Alamy Live News
