Dear Friends, I just had a word with Rev. Fr. Cedric Prakash. Rev. Fr. Prasad Gonsalves continues to languish in jail. Under some pretext or the other his bail application is being delayed. This is a clear case of human rights violation. Urgent faxes and emails should be sent to the following so that Fr.Prasad is released immediately and those who gave false complaints are arrested and prosecuted. President Abdul Kalam Azad : 011 23014570 Prime Minister Shri Manmohan Singh : 011 23019334 Chairman - National Human Rights Commission Justice A.S.Anand : [EMAIL PROTECTED] The Bombay Catholic Sabha and the All India Catholic Union [National President Dr. John Dayal have already lodged their protest. The BCS will also launch a signature campaign and work out on alternative agitational plans if Fr. Prasad is not released immediately and the false and frivolous charges against him are not withdrawn. Please keep in touch for further news and action plans. Best Regards, Dolphy D'souza National Vice President -All India Catholic Union President- The Bombay Catholic Sabha Tel: 91 22 26662585 / 09820226227 Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
