Youve been campaigning on behalf you looking for him to be released off a sentence to be reduced well were calling on a. Condition on terrorism charges to be lifted and to be released he has been in prison already for three separate it as you heard from mr two daughters and his wife nadia.

This hungry have the right to decide who enters the country. How we does have the right to and to decide who enters the country to a certain extent but all countries have an obligation to share responsibility for refugees and those free will now its important to remember that ahmed himself wasnt actually a refugee hed had come to the aid of keys elderly parents who are trying to flee syria but the border and government in hungary have been using the case to to prove that theyre that refugees and terror is not in some way associated this is the argument that they used to justify their rejection of refugees and Asylum Seekers the only case that they have to support this argument that theyre found its case so is the army really being a victim of these why the politics that say so should people be allowed to bombard police with roxanne get away with it. Attacks against the police can be a little offensive lots of countries but they do not constitute a terrorism offense and what i mean has been prosecuted for is committing an act of terrorism this is in part because of hungarys overly broad and vaguely defined counterterrorism law under which a lot of actions which we would not really be we usually consider to be terrorism can work out as a terrorism offense this combined with the old bad governments dehumanization of refugees and migrants ballpoint has given rise to this prosecution good talking to thank you for joining us at a site from Amnesty International thank you.
