More than 50,000 people have signed an e-petition to stop a British terror suspect from being extradited to the U.S. Babar Ahmad is accused of raising funds for terrorists through a Connecticut-based internet service provider.
Computer expert Babar Ahmad has been fighting extradition to the US since his arrest in 2004. He is Britain’s longest-held prisoner detained without trial. He's been held there under a controversial 2003 treaty between the United States and the U.K.
Ahmad is accused of using a Connecticut Internet Service Provider to operate websites that raised money and supplies for the Taliban in Afghanistan and terrorists in Chechnya.
His supporters are gathering signatures urging the British Government to stop Ahmad’s extradition. They want him to be tried in Britain. If they receive 100 thousand signatures by November 10th, the matter will be debated in Parliament.
