All welcome!
Friday circle presents CagePrisoners FundRaiser on Friday 12th April 2013. CagePrisoners is an organisation created to tackle the so called 'War on Terror'. They create awareness of the underlying issue which has seen many Muslim brothers and sister kidnapped, tortured and incarcerated for many years without trial.
Director of Research Asim Qureshi will be our guest speaker and will be explaining the Drone Attacks on Pakistan. Unarmed planes are flown to Pakistan dropping bombs indiscriminatley killing innocent women, children and men.
CagePrisoners needs our help. Without funding they cannot continue to do the great work they do. We cannot let their great efforts be kerbed due financial restraints when the Muslim ummah especially in Britain have been blessed with so much wealth.
