CALL AND CHARGE

Aufruf und Anklageschrift in deutsch

Three years, 11 months and 1 day after the death of Oury Jalloh in Cell No. 5 of the police station in Dessau, the two policemen accused of his death have been acquitted of negligence. Numerous actions and nationwide informational events carried out by the Initiative in Memory of Oury Jalloh and various other refugee and migrant self organisations were the principal reason that a trial was even opened in the first place. Because the entire police and the State Prosecutor of Dessau did everything in their power to bury it, the court proved incapable of uncovering the truth.

Poem in remembrance of oury jalloh >>>Next DEMONSTRATION 07.01.08

In remembrance of Oury

The cell is a hard place to burn
To burn a young man alive
to burn a young life alive
to burn hopes and dreams alive
to break our motherly sisterly brotherly heart

The cell is a hard place
to torn a security system apart
to push humanity apart
to torn iron bars
to crush our African flesh

The cell is supposed to be an egg
To protect and allow to restore and grow
Not a playing ground for fallen angels
Not a grey nasty silent killing field
Not a death row

Na e bi
Na e bi nje boli mba e
But many of those who rule
And many of those who wear

Joint Statement - Network for Undocumented Migrants

Joint Statement on the International Migrants Day

Network for the Recognition and Protection of the Rights of Undocumented Migrants
18 December 2008

*On the Occasion of the International Migrants Day:*
*Recognize and Protect the Rights of Undocumented Migrants!*

Undocumented migrant workers are the unrecognized hands that contribute a lot to the economies of the countries they work in and countries where they come from. Yet, they are some of the most exploited, abused and repressed among the migrants.
