All 4 Britons are back in the UK and with their respective friends and family. We are thankful to all who supported throughout and the British Government for bringing them home.

The #Taliban have released four hostages, held for many months in #Afghanistan with no charge.

We are relieved and pleased - words cannot describe what it means for the detention of the Britons to come to an end. We are thankful to the FCDO for their work and that the Taliban have released these men. But above all else we are joyful for the families. #KevinCornwell

#KevinCornwell remains seriously ill and he has been critically ill, and his condition has not improved. The second "unnamed Briton" - his health has deteriorated also. Both men are without charge. The supposed evidence the Taliban has we have dealt with. It is extremely likely…

I strongly recommend everyone read the "Universal Declaration of Human Rights" UDHR from 1948, a cornerstone of the United Nations. Read it with the world in mind but especially #Afghanistan today. un.org/en/about-us/un…

Kevin and his wife are good friends of my grandmother. You couldn't meet a nicer man. The Taliban doesn't need to detain sick foreigners to prove they're in control. He came to help and this is how he's being treated? He deserves his freedom. He deserves his life!

In terms of prisoner rights, these are protected under the United Nations Standard Minimum Rules for the Treatment of Prisoners were adopted by the United Nations General Assembly on 17 December 2015. The detention of Prisoners under arbitrary detention does not meet these…

Arbitrary Detention is a violation of the “Universal Declaration of Human Rights” (“UDHR”), under “Article 9”. Arbitrary detention is also a violation of the “International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights”. Arbitrary Detention is considered an unfair and unlawful practice…

Shortly, at the 78th General Assembly of the #UN Libya, Myanmar, and Afghanistan's applications for a Permanent Secretary to the UN will be considered. The use of arbitrary detention is another factor that undermines this as it violates numerous principles of the @UN charter…

What the IEA should have implemented for foreigners arbitrarily charged, and including the recent arrest of 18 people, is fast-track deportation rather than extended detention. Detention without charge is a limited time period to investigate, it is not meant to be for a year or…

We remain gravely concerned about the status of Mr Cornwell's health. The matter is of significant concern on the base of arbitrary detention, and there are many more people detained than the 4 Britons. The use of arbitrary detention by any nation is an abuse of the rights of…

@PostFromProtest @PresidiumNet If all countries stand together create firm boundary’s which uses the legal frameworks put in place for detentions such as these. We might get get somewhere. Why make international law if you are not going to use them. If ever there was a time to act using law, it is now.

If the #IEA is serious, when it comes to statements about international law and its intersection with Sharia Law. Demonstration means more than verbalisation. Please release the Britons held in arbitrary detention, @PresidiumNet clearly demonstrated this was a misunderstanding,…

We certainly welcome statements by Siraj Haqqani that acknowledge that International Law and Sharia Law can be compatible. #ArbitraryDetention is universally considered a banned practice under UN doctrine and international human rights law. If the IEA is serious about the #UN and…

If this is true, that the IEA is seeking to ascend to the UN by means of the Republic's seat invites a host of questions and practicalities. The UN and the requisite charters, the UN's working group on arbitrary detention, and that such actions as arbitrary detention contravenes…

Anyone held in detention the State has a duty of care to them. Holding people in arbitrary detention for 8 months in the case of Mr. Cornwell who has severe health issues which have become critical recently is profoundly troubling. We have always demonstrated that this is a…
