Scottish airports are being used by US aircraft taking "suspects" to countries where torture occurs - the obscene practice called extraordinary rendition. Torture is immoral and illegal. It has to stop.
Simultaneous protests are planned at 3 Scottish airports - Prestwick, Glasgow and Edinburgh.
We'll be demanding that the British authorities end their complicity in torture, and we'll be offering our solidarity to the "Witnesses Against Torture" at Guantanamo Bay.
Organisations supporting the protests include Scotland Against Criminalising Communities (SACC) www.sacc.org.uk, Edinburgh Stop The War Coalition www.edinburghstw.org.uk, Glasgow Stop The War Coalition, Ayrshire Friends of Refugees and the Scottish Socialist Party parliamentary group.

Following intervention by the British government, by April 2005 all British nationals were released from Guantanamo Bay. However no representation has so far been made on behalf of 9 non-citizens despite their long-term residency in the UK and the fact they have family members who are UK nationals. The UK authorities have consistently refused to make such representations.
