Binyam Mohamed turned 30 yesterday in Guantánamo Bay. Held illegally and without conviction for over six years, the British government wouldn't let Binyam come to his party, so we took the party to them!

Protestors gathered outside Downing Street on Thursday 24th July, to hold a 'Birthday Party' for Britain's last Guantamo Detainee, Binyam Mohamed [Reports and Pics 1 | 2]. The event marks the culmination of a week long vigil which took place outside the US Embassy.
