Post via Islamic Emirate 15th Oct 2017

The Canadian detainee who was released a few days earlier hurled accusations against the Mujahideen of Islamic Emirate alleging – may Allah forbid – that his child was killed and honor violated.

We categorically reject these false and fabricated claims of the detainees who are in the hands of the enemy. The detainees are currently with the enemy and will say everything defaming being force fed to them.

From the time the couple were detained until their release, the husband and wife were not separated from one another precisely due to the fact that the Mujahideen did not want to incite any suspicion.

Similarly the murder of a child is also a baseless allegation although during a period of detention an incident did take place when the woman became ill. The area was remote, no doctors were present and due to this severe condition, the woman had a natural miscarriage of a girl. No one has either intentionally murdered the child of this couple and neither has anyone violated or defiled them.

If (Allah forbid) there was a plan for such a thing, they would not have returned home with their three children. The enemy should not portray the Mujahideen in their own image as the entire humanity is ashamed of the inhumane barbarity of Americans carried out against prisoners in Bagram and Guantanamo.

The allegations floating around in the media have nothing to do with the reality because the said people are now in the hands of our enemy. They can claim every kind of defamatory allegation against the Mujahideen but no Muslim or person who knows the Mujhaideen intimately can ever accept such propaganda.

With the outset of the new administration in America, the American invaders have ratcheted up their tempo of using military force in our beloved country once more, intensifying night raids, drone attacks and bombardments. Notwithstanding that, they have turned to baseless propaganda and political pressures, thinking the use of force will compel the Afghan nation to accept their occupation. But,these are the same failed experiences of the former Soviet Union and the British Empire in the past which had no results. Even during the implementation of the new strategy in the past short period of time, the current invaders themselves witnessed their new strategy to be practically no more than failed one. For example, since its implementation a number of districts have collapsed at the hands of the Mujahideen or are about to collapse.

It is to be mentioned that the current popular Islamic resistance has been continuing at its full momentum now for past decades with the help of the Almighty Allah. This resistance has not emerged and flourished in a single day but the Afghan people have given millions of sacrifices during the invasions of Red Army and America but still the resistance forges ahead in full swing and unremittingly. New generations come in and carry out their religious and historical responsibility. If the previous invaders and the current Americans and their allies are equipped with advanced weaponry on the one hand, on the other hand the Mujahideen are also armed with faith and popular support. Their objective is clear and sacred which is the end of occupation and establishment of an all Afghan inclusive Islamic system on their soil.

Islamic Emirate neither intends to interfere in the internal affairs of others nor allows others to interfere in Afghanistan. To reach this goal, it has kept open the way of peaceful understanding and dialogue but it must be mentioned that the self-serving definition of terrorism used for imperliastic goals has lost all value.

Is it rationale that the invaders who occupied our country, martyred our civilians, exploit and destroy our resources should not be called terrorists but the true sons of this land and the Mujahideen who are defending their religion, country and the people should be called as terrorists? No sane person can ever accept it this false argument.

We call on America and her internal and external allies to abandon the failed strategy of use of force and instead turn to the real solution of the issue. The roots of this current Jihadic resistance exist in the grooves of the nation. This is an undefeatable force, by the grace of the Almighty Allah. But still, if you intend to continue denying the legitimate rights of the Afghan Muslim nation, you have to fear the day when you will face disintegration from within like the former Soviet Union and not being able to handle it.

N.B. This article consists of only those incidents which were confirmed and admitted by the enemy too. It is worth reminding that for further authentic information about the casualties and financial losses of the enemy, both the savage foreign invaders as well as their internal mercenaries, one is advised to visit ‘Alemarah’, the official website of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan.

In September, widespread attacks were launched by heroic Mujahidin of the Islamic Emirate in various parts of the country, in which, vast areas were liberated from the enemy by inflicting heavy casualties and losses on them. These and other likewise incidents which occurred during this month, are elaborated under the following captions:

Casualties and losses of the foreign invaders:

Though the deceiving foreign invaders have admitted that only two of their soldiers were killed during this month in Afghanistan, but meticulous and successful attacks of Mujahidin on these savage occupying forces clearly indicate that the number is higher than that confessed by them.

On Monday 11^th September, tens of foreign soldiers were killed and wounded in a heroic martyrdom seeking attack in ‘Bagram’ district of ‘Prwan’ province.

On Friday 15^th September, at least seven savage foreign soldiers were killed in another well-timed martyrdom seeking attack in ‘Daman’ district of ‘Kandahar’ province.

On Thursday 21^st September, main entrance of the strategic ‘Jalal-Abad’ airport was brought under a meticulous attack by Mujahidin of the Islamic Emirate, in which, a number of foreign forces were killed and wounded.

Just three days later, Kabul, the capital city, was the witness of another deadly attack of Mujahidin on foreign occupying forces, carried out in fifth zone in the heart of the city, in which, sixteen foreign soldiers were killed and wounded.

In this way, thirty foreign soldiers were killed and several others were injured during September, but the deceitful enemy, for concealing their defeat and disgrace, did not admit all these casualties and losses openly.

In short, by admitting two of their soldiers killed in September, the number of their casualties during current year rose to 13; and the total number of their casualties during the whole era of illegitimate foreign occupation reached to 3541 soldiers; among them 2401 are American soldiers.

Losses and Casualties of internal mercenaries:

Stooge forces of the puppet regime, like their foreign masters, also suffered heavy losses and casualties in their ranks of so called national army, police and the notorious Arbaki militiamen. Though exact number is not available, but some incidents, mentioned in the following lines, can easily depict the enormity of these losses and casualties of the internal mercenaries.

On Friday 1^st September, a key intelligence officer of the stooge enemy was killed in ‘Qara-Bagh’ district of ‘Kabul’ district.

On Wednesday 6^th September, an enemy commander was killed in a mine blast in ‘Khash-Raud’ district in ‘Nimroze’ province.

On the following day, a general commander of the unrestrained Arbaki militiamen was killed in ‘Company’ area of ‘Kabul’ province.

On Monday 11^th September, the security chief of ‘Qara-Bagh’ district in ‘Ghazni’ province was killed by Mujahidin.

On the following day, the governor of ‘Hisarak’ district in ‘Nangarhar’ province became the target of Mujahidin’s attack, along-with his personal guards, and were killed.

On Thursday 14^th September, the security chief of ‘Jughato’ district of ‘Ghazni’ province was killed.

On Thursday 21^st September, third of the security chiefs of the above district, all of them appointed within the short span only one month, was killed by Mujahidin.

A day earlier (i.e. on Wednesday 20^th September), intelligence director of the security department of ‘Takhar’ province was killed.

On Saturday 23^rd September, security chief of ‘Naad-Ali’ district in ‘Helmond’ province was killed by heroic Mujahidin of the Islamic Emirate.

Financial losses of the enemy:

Besides the above casualties, colossal financial losses were also inflicted on both the foreign invaders and their internal mercenaries during September. Added to several military tanks, armored and other vehicles, a huge amount of heavy and light weapons and their ammunition were confiscated by Mujahidin in confrontations with the enemy in various parts of the country.

On Wednesday 6^th September, an enemy helicopter was hit and brought down by Mujahidin in ‘Ajristan’ district of ‘Daikundi’ province.

On the same day, another helicopter of the enemy, tasked for transferring the casualties of the first incident from the above area, was also targeted and hit by Mujahidin.

Casualties and persecution of civilian people:

Losses and casualties of civilian people by savage foreign invaders and the stooge forces of puppet regime not only remained incessant, but it escalated significantly during this month as surveyed and confirmed by some pro-enemy organs. All-inclusive details about these losses and casualties can be read in the monthly report regularly published on the official website of the Islamic Emirate. Here in the following lines a few incidents have been elaborated as a handful out of a heap.

On Saturday 2^nd September, ‘Bolan’ area in ‘Helmond’ province was indiscriminately bombed by the savage foreign invaders, in which, forty houses were demolished while several civilian people were martyred and wounded.

On Wednesday 6^th September, seven innocent villagers were martyred and wounded in a blind aerial attack of the enemy in ‘Chura’ district of ‘Urzgan’ province. In addition, fourteen shops were completely burnt and turned into ashes in this brutal attack.

On Friday 15^th September, a civilian was attacked and brutally killed in ‘Jalal-Abad’ city, the center of ‘Nangarhar’ province, by the security guards of ‘Zahir Qadeer’, deputy head of the bogus national assembly.

Two days later, two civilian houses and a mosque were demolished and several civilians were martyred and wounded during and a blind and brutal bombing of the savage foreign invaders and their internal mercenaries in ‘Deh-i-Yak’ district of ‘Ghazni’ province.

On Monday 18^th September, eight civilian people were crushed and martyred while thirteen others were wounded in a reckless driving of the stooge forces of puppet regime in ‘Khan-Abad’ district of ‘Kunduz’ province.

On Tuesday 19^th September, a civilian countryman was martyred by the unrestrained Arbaki militiamen in ‘Shaiva’ district of ‘Nangarhar’ province.

On the same day, thousands of civilian people demonstrated against the indecencies and cruelties of the notorious Arbaki militiamen in ‘Zurmat’ district of ‘Paktia’ province.

On Saturday 23^rd September, the picture of a fifty-year-old man was published and widely shared in social media who was brutally being beaten by the savage Arbaki militiamen in ‘Qaisar’ district of ‘Faryab’ province.

Amalgamation with Mujahidin:

During September, a number of military and civilian officials of the stooge admin in Kabul abandoned the puppet regime and united with Mujahidin. Complete details in this regard can be read in the monthly report published on the official website of the Islamic Emirate. In the following lines only two incidents are mentioned.

On Saturday 9^th September, six soldiers of the stooge admin left their ranks and integrated with Mujahidin along-with all their weapons and ammunition in ‘Maroof’ district of ‘Kandahar’ province.

On Tuesday 19^th September, twelve other soldiers, by discerning the malicious objectives of the savage foreign occupying forces and their internal mercenaries, shifted and joined Mujahidin.

Releasing political and war prisoners:

Despite the incessant claims of defending the basic human rights and human dignity by the stooge admin in Kabul as well as their foreign masters, their notorious jails are still suffocated with helpless and innocent people, as most of them are not indicted yet and have no dossiers.

On the contrary, on Friday 1^st September, as a sign of good-will, a number of political and war prisoners were released by the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan through a special decree of the ‘Amir-ul-Momineem’ (may Allah protect him). These prisoners were then handed over to their families in their respective areas with dignity and honor.

Mansoori Operations:

‘Mansoori’ Jihadi Operations were in full swing during this month throughout the country, in which, several minor and major successful and fatal assaults were carried out against the wicked foreign invaders and their internal mercenaries, by inflicting heavy casualties and colossal financial losses on them. In the following lines some of these operations are discussed.

On Monday 4^th September, a military post of the enemy in ‘Arghandab’ district of ‘Zabul’ province, and another one in ‘Sholgara’ district of ‘Balkh’ province were liberated by Mujahidin after severe fighting with the enemy.

On Wednesday 6^th September, main entrance of the strategic and strongly fortified ‘Bagram’ airbase was brought under a successful and deadly attack by heroic Mujahidin of the Islamic Emirate to avenge the violation of the sanctity of the testimonial word of Islam by the savage and infidel foreign occupying forces. In this meticulous attack, tens of foreign soldiers were killed and wounded.

On the same day, two helicopters of the enemy were hit and brought down by Mujahidin in ‘Ajristan’ district of ‘Daikundi’ province, in which, all the people on board were killed.

On Friday 15^th September, seven foreign soldiers were killed during a successful and huge attack of Mujahidin in ‘Daman’ district of ‘Kandahar’ province.

On Tuesday 19^th September, the strategic district of ‘Kohistan’ in ‘Faryab’ province came under Mujahidin’s control; while two days later, twenty more posts of the enemy were conquered by Mujahidin in the area.

Two days later, main entrance of the strategic ‘Jalal-Abad’ airbase became the target of Mujahidin’s attack, in which, several foreign soldiers were killed and wounded.

On Sunday 24^th September, a convoy of the savage foreign invaders was brought under a severe attack by Mujahidin of the Islamic Emirate in ‘fifth’ security zone in the heart of Kabul, in which, 16 foreign soldiers were killed and wounded.

Two days later, ten military posts of the enemy came under Mujahidin’s control in ‘Khawaja-Ghaar’ district of ‘Takhar’ province.

On Wednesday 27^th September, the strategic Kabul airport came under a meticulous attack of Mujahidin exactly on the arrival of the defense minister of United States. In these operations, which lasted for hours, several foreign forces were killed and wounded. In addition, huge financial losses were also inflicted on the humiliated enemy.

On the following day, ‘Maroof’ district of ‘Kandahar’ province was completely liberated by heroic Mujahidin of the Islamic Emirate.

On Thursday 28^th September, military officials of the puppet regime released a statement, which told that several high ranking officials of the puppet regime were killed in guerilla attacks of Mujahidin in ‘Ghazni’ province recently, showing a significant increase in these attacks in the area.

Increasing the number of foreign occupying forces:

After the announcement of new strategy by the president of the United States in August, 2600 fresh American occupying forces were sent to Afghanistan on 2^nd September. Both the new American strategy and the deployment of fresh foreign occupying forces will inevitably intensify and extend the current war, but, by the grace of Almighty Allah, courageous Mujahidin of the Islamic Emirate have also increased and improved their Jihadi operations as compared to past, by liberating vast areas from the enemy.

On Saturday 9^th September, in response to the new strategy and the deployment of additional forces in Afghanistan, Mr. Donard Dwyer, a well-known American analyst, wrote in an article that actually America has occupied Afghanistan and is still involved in the indiscriminate homicide of the innocent civilian people.

Another humiliation:

A number of people have been fighting Mujahidin on the misconception of defending their country and safeguarding their own sanctity and modesty.

On Saturday 23^rd September, contrary to all their misconceptions and expectations, a report was published by SIGAR (Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction) by disclosing a bitter and shocking fact that the widows of those people who sacrificed their lives, as perceived by them, for the country and the puppet regime, are sexually abused by the stooge admin officials when they come to get the official privileges of their deceased loved ones. Spokesmen of both presidential and interior ministry of the stooge admin have confirmed this shocking report by calling it a terrible one.

Enemies of Peace and Stability:

American invaders and their internal stooges always used to blame the Islamic Emirate for creating hurdles in peace process, but the reality is that the foreign invaders are war-mongers themselves, and whenever and wherever a chance or glimpse of hope is found, they try to nip it in the bud.

On Tuesday 26^th September, media reported that after a meeting with Ashraf Ghani, president Trump has asked him to raise the issue of closing the political office of the Islamic Emirate in Qatar. If this conspiracy turns into reality, then all channels of finding a peaceful solution for Afghan dilemma will be blocked, and Mujahidin would have no other option but to prolong the war until the last foreign soldier is withdrawn from our beloved homeland. In this case, it will be the innocent civilian people who would suffer the most, whereas the foreign invaders and their internal mercenaries will also have to suffer severe losses and casualties due to their obstinacy for prolonging this futile war in Afghanistan.

Post via Islamic Emirate

Exactly sixteen years ago today on 15^th of Mizan corresponding with 7^th of October, American invading forces began their assault on the pure sanctum, air and land of Afghanistan and opened a despicable war of killing the Afghan nation.

The true reason behind this war was America’s arrogant politics and evil policy aimed at invading and enslaving other nations which had no room for rational decision making and that has resulted in sparking a fire, the flames of which are burning Americans to this very day.

The political analysts and inexperienced Generals of US leaders thought that Afghanistan was a bite sized meal which can readily be devoured and added to their list of colonies.

However they were unaware that this valiant nation has broken the horns of every invading force and thrown them into the sinkhole of history.

The American invaders have killed and injured more than a hundred thousand Afghans over the past sixteen years, displaced hundreds of thousands more, thrown them in prisons and beat and tortured them but the only thing the sixteen years have proven are the anti-occupation sensitivity of the Afghans, their unbreakable determination and their unwavering resolve and endurance in the path of Allah as they continue their Jihadic struggle under the leadership of Islamic Emirate with complete firmness without feeling any sense of fatigue whatsoever.

Over the course of this period, the Afghan Jihad against America has gone from strength to strength, their ranks have solidified, have caused the enemy immense losses, a new generation has been trained and employed in their Jihadic ranks and all praise belong to Allah, have cleansed half of their homeland from the evil grip of occupation.

The Islamic Emirate – as the representative of the Afghan nation – reminds the American invaders that no matter how much you prolong the invasion, the end shall no doubt be your defeat and withdrawal. Our nation is not tired nor will it feel fatigue, it is neither disappoint nor will they abandon their struggle. We lunge towards battlefields with high spirits, fervor of martyrdom and with intention of fulfilling the grand obligation of Jihad in the path of Allah. You must understand that such an ideological and hardened nation has never been pacified nor have dreams of conquering them ever been realized.

The best way forward for the American invaders is to understand realities, respect freedom of other nations, prevent further human and material losses, end the longest war in your history, chose an intelligent and rational path forward, withdraw your occupation forces, leave Afghans to their own will, stop interfering in our internal affairs and stop throwing yourself into the ditch of destruction by insisting on arrogance.

We are determined in forcing out all occupying troops. This is our lawful right. We shall protect our freedom, self-determination, Islamic system and people with our souls. Thousands of our youth are still waiting in line for their turn at martyrdom and sacrifice and shall most certainly establish an Islamic government, Allah willing.

The US defense secretary James Mattis and the secretary General of NATO arrived at Kabul on an unannounced visit the other day.

Upon arrival at Kabul, Taliban pounded Kabul airport with a series rocket strikes. Considering the time and place of this shocking attack which spanned for more than 6 hours, it was a response by Taliban challenging the new war strategy announced by the president of the United States of America.

From an Intelligence Angle

It is military protocol of foreign forces to not inform any Afghan party when key personalities such as James Mattis and Jens Stoltenberg plan unannounced visits however the Taliban still successfully managed to fish for such an important piece of information and planned accordingly for this significant military and diplomatic mission.

As such, this attack not only challenged the abilities of American and other foreign forces based in Kabul but also shocked the US intelligence apparatus who were left scratching their heads as to how the Taliban managed to get a hold of critical piece of information about the arrival of the US defense secretary and secretary general of NATO.

From Military Angle

A. Even though the visit by James Mattis and Jens Stoltenberg were supposed to be secret and unannounced however the Taliban – in such a short period of time – managed to prepare and coordinate such a large attack to greet the new visitors that all the American and internal forces backed by airpower only managed to eliminate the threat after 6 hours!!!

B. The Taliban managed to pull off their ‘guard of honor’ right under the nose of Arg, an area of the city that is supposedly under 24 hour camera surveillance of the Americans and hundreds of other intelligence agencies.

C. The attack was so precise in its execution that the entire focus was on the military section of Kabul airport and civilians were kept out of harm’s way. Contrarily, the foreign and internal forces – who have had control of every inch of Kabul city for the past 16 years – were so thrown aback by the attack that they hit civilian homes instead of the target, resulting in a woman killed and 11 civilians injured.

D. Although the attack was part of the urban tactics in guerilla warfare (hit and run) with a limited timeframe for execution however according to a journalist working with the New York Times, the attack lasted for nearly 6 hours where between 40 to 50 projectiles were lobbed at Kabul airport and all local and international flights were disrupted.

From Propaganda Angle

The time chosen for this attack was such through which the Taliban forced international media to accept the effectiveness of their military and media because the attack was top news in all the important international media outlets and listed in twitter social media network as the third hashtag trending in the United States.

Message of Attack

The US defense secretary and secretary general of NATO are considered one of the most important officials and posts worldwide.

Their trip to Kabul was not unexpected but they first visited India and then Kabul to elaborate on the critical points of the speech given by Donald Trump at the United Nations General Assembly and provide further details about their grand war strategy for South Asia and Afghanistan.

They wanted to discuss the effectiveness of Trump’s strategy towards the Taliban with Ghani and implementation of its later stages. However Taliban sent their message first and practically showed them with military means the true scope of their reach and ineffectiveness of policy chosen by Trump.

Another important point of this attack by the Taliban – which occurred close to the anniversary of conquest of Kabul by the Taliban twenty one years earlier – was to send Trump a message; if America toppled their regime through military intervention sixteen years prior, they too have the military strength to target the US defense secretary and secretary general of NATO in Afghanistan and force them to accept the ground realities despite them expending all their military might.

Post via Islamic Emirate

On this day (6^th of Mizan) twenty one years earlier the capital of our country – Kabul – was freed from the claws of the infighting warmongers and the white flag of peace, security and tranquility was hoisted over it.

This was a memorable day in the history of our country as Kabul was liberated at the hands of Islamic Emirate and civil strife, anarchy, lawlessness and all other ills began receding. The savagery which had gripped Kabul, that darkness and tragic situation is not hidden from anyone.

Freeing Kabul from such conditions and supplanting it with security, peace and tranquility is truly considered a historical moment which the Mujahideen of Islamic Emirate had achieved through sacrificing their lives and limbs.

We again congratulate our believing nation on the anniversary of that historical day. We hope to once again see the white flag of independence and sovereignty fluttering over the capital Kabul and give you glad tidings of approaching moments of emancipation from the brutal invaders.

The conquest of Kabul at the hands of Mujahideen of Islamic Emirate was not only a historical moment that sealed the fate of our country but it was also unique in its arrangement and composition. The forces of Islamic Emirate entered Kabul from multiple directions but neither was anyone’s home or wealth looted nor did civilians suffer losses. Neither were government offices, banks, shops or money exchange centers plundered nor did any such event occur which can be expected under wartime conditions. And the reason behind this was because the Mujahideen of Islamic Emirate – unlike the militias – had not entered Kabul to ransack and spread corruption but had taken the step of liberating Kabul to establish order, administration, peace and an Islamic system.

Kabul – under American occupation and in the claws of their stooges – is again facing conditions reminiscent of the situation this historical city had faced before the 26^th of Mizan.

If the lives of Kabul citizens were tormented by war and fighting at that time, this time around they are facing security walls and precautionary barriers of the invaders as well as explicit violations against their religion and customs. No one can speak out or demand their rights due to the transgression and barbarity of the invaders and their stooges. Using constricted alleyways and pathways due to closure of main roads and neighborhoods of this small town has become a painful sore for the locals.

On the other hand, the oppressed locals of Kabul have reached a tipping point due to bribes, illegal seizures, embezzlement, pillage and administrative corruption of the corrupt regime imposed by the invaders and are looking for a savior force which can deliver the heart of Afghanistan from the stooges of America and elements of evil and corruption.

Just as reign of oppression and corruption is limited, Allah willing the day is not far where Kabul shall once again experience the shade of peace, reconciliation and Islamic system through deliverance from the rule of corruption.

And nothing is hard for the Almighty Allah.

Peter Longstaff victim of Contaminated Blood disaster who died in 2005 with wife Carol

Victims of the Haemophilia Contaminated Blood disaster described by Lord Winston as the “worst medical treatment disaster in the history of the NHS” have won the right to take their case to the High Court according to the Guardian (see following link)

Contaminated Blood scandal victims win ruling to launch High Court action

https://www.theguardian.com/society/2017/sep/26/contaminated-blood-scandal-victims-win-ruling-to-launch-high-court-action

Haemophiliacs were infected with HIV and hepatitis C after receiving contaminated blood products in the 1970s and 80s used to treat their condition. The blood was often imported from the US and later traced back via batch numbers to virally high- risk donors including prisoners at Arkansas State Penitentiary.

However campaigners have raised serious concerns that evidence presented as “new” in some media that allegedly formed part of an application to the court is in fact evidence that is many years old and was placed in the public domain by myself as well as presented in face to face meetings with government officials.

Colette Wintle a respected independent campaigner for women with bleeding disorders who was infected with hepatitis C wrote to Liz Carroll CEO at the National Haemophilia Society,

“We can’t claim to be upholding truth and justice if we are supporting a case on misinformation and evidence that was presented over and over again directly to government since 2009. The government is already aware that the information is not new. I am astounded and appalled by the news today that JJ Evans and his solicitors have held their first hearing in the high courts in a case that is being presented as serving up new evidence! This new evidence is apparently based on the documents Jason Evans has uncovered, however as we all know he is using documents acquired under FOI which are actually the redacted version of what Carol Grayson had released via her husband’s solicitors back in 2006 with an arrangement with the DOH. Not only were these documents 25 years of hard research, but many originated from Carol and Pete’s litigation case against government back in 1991 and Jason is dishonestly using them as “new evidence” which even Jeff Courtenay agreed  with Carol, was a lie.

More worryingly , Carol did contact Collins Law who are acting for this high court case, to advise them that the documents shown to them belonged to her husband’s legal case. She also advised them that she was the only person in the UK to have challenged the DOH on it’s definitive report “The self Sufficiency Report 1973-1991 with an award winning dissertation. It cannot be ignored that she was awarded the Sir Michael Young Researcher of the Year Award 2009 which is the top social science award in the UK. Oh and by the way the co- chair of the APPG for Haemophilia and Contaminated Blood ,Sir Peter Bottomley presented the prize to her. I know this because I was there alongside your predecessor Chris James at the ceremony. Sir Peter’s wife  Virginia Bottomley ex Health Minister at the time in 1991, also designated the haemophilia cases back in 1991 as having a “special case status” well documented in the Hansard. It is interesting that this appears to have been completely forgotten about and ignored in subsequent negotiations until this point.  

All of these documents were referenced in Hansard, Newsnight April 2007, and numerous press articles, which means clearly they are not new but old news, and sadly the Haemophilia Society since 2009 have sat on this information and failed to use it for the benefit of the society’s members at a point when politically Lord Archer’s conclusions and recommendations in his report could have been implemented. Where does the society stand on this Liz?”

Statement from Carol Grayson on the news that a legal case can proceed

(27th September 2017)

As a campaigner of nearly 3 decades, I am deeply concerned that a legal firm has gone to the High Court claiming “new evidence” according to the Daily Mail when in fact what has been highlighted so far as “new” is in fact old evidence that was ignored by government, the Haemophilia Society, Health Authorities, plasma companies, the GMC, human rights groups and 5 sets of solicitors for years. That is part of what Andy Burnham calls “a criminal cover-up” on an industrial scale”.

Daily Mail article where old evidence returned to the Department of Health by myself in 2006 to be released through the National Archives at Kew and features in my ESRC Michael Young award winning dissertation is falsely claimed as “new” by Jason Evans,

“The new evidence was found by Jason Evans, 27, whose father Jonathan died in 1993 with HIV and hepatitis C after being given contaminated blood products.

Mr Evans, a marketing consultant from Coventry, spent 12 months gathering thousands of documents through Freedom of Information requests and from the National Archives. He said: ‘There has long been concern that there was the use of ‘human guinea pigs’. This is the first time we have evidence that says it in black and white.'”

Evidence falsely claimed as “new” by Jason Evans in the Daily Mail can be found in Chapter 4 of my dissertation (2006) and in the Chronology see link,

There is some debate whether Collins Law are still referring to the evidence as “new” which was the basis of their application to the Court for group litigation in the first place. Some media have had to retract the word “new” from articles on the case after complaints were made showing original documents. Yet to my knowledge if Collins Law have changed their mind they have not informed the High Court yet that this evidence is not new?

My awards are for “truth and justice” so it is important to highlight corrects dates of knowledge as to when information was first placed in the public domain. Misinformation is not something for a human rights campaigner to celebrate.

All I have seen so far is that much of the evidence from my late husband’s litigation files which I returned to government in 2006 via solicitors Blackett Pratt and Hart to be released through the National Archives at Kew rehashed under another person’s name. This is exactly what happened in the 2010 Judicial Review against the then Secretary of State for Health, won on key letters myself and Colette Wintle acquired in 2004 in response to several questions on the compensation paid out to haemophiliacs in Eire on a “no liability” basis on the grounds of “extraordinary suffering”. Lord Warner has still not been held to account for misleading parliament.

Contaminated Blood documents I had returned to government in 2006 were released via the National Archives at Kew. These were accessed legally and formed part of my dissertation awarded Michael Young award 2009 (SEE HANSARD BELOW).

                                                      Haemophilia

Jenny Willott: To ask the Secretary of State for Health (1) how many and what proportion of documents relating to the infection of haemophiliacs with contaminated blood products which have been returned to the Department of Health by Blackett, Heart and Pratt Solicitors have (a) undergone independent legal examination and (b) been passed to the Haemophilia Society; [119897]

(2) how many documents relating to the infection of haemophiliacs with contaminated blood products have been returned to the Department by Blackett, Heart and Pratt solicitors; and if she will make a statement. [119898]

Caroline Flint: In May 2006, Blackett Hart and Pratt solicitors returned 623 documents to departmental solicitors. All the documents were reviewed by independent counsel, before they were sent to officials in the Department. The vast majority of these documents (604 in total) were released in line with the Freedom of Information (FOI) Act 2000. The documents were sent to a number of individuals at their request and to the Haemophilia Society.

Some documents were withheld under FOI. However, officials are further reviewing these papers with a view to releasing them if possible.

This evidence was repeatedly presented to government and formed part of my ESRC award winning research in 2006. The government have confirmed many times in writing that a junior civil servant “inadvertently destroyed” government’s own records so are relying on copies which I discovered and sent back.

Other campaigners and I are awaiting further legal advice. What is disturbing is that a case I was actively involved in and was closed down by a firm several years ago (that has now gone into administration) has recently been viewed by another firm of solicitors who contacted the client to say “I have reviewed your file of papers and consider you have good prospects of success at this stage and confirm that my firm is willing to act for you on the same terms and conditions” (as the previous solicitors). Why were the earlier solicitors so keen to close the case down despite a large amount of key evidence being presented to them and to a QC by myself and the client?

Any public inquiry must include in its remit to investigate how legal cases were handled over the years. One note in my husband’s old legal files reads, “I can no longer lie to my clients”. Why should any lawyer be lying to their clients?

E-mail to Jeff Courtney, Policy and Public Affairs Manager at the Haemophilia Society 16th August 2017 asking for information on Collins Law case

Jeff,

I have not seen Collins Law solicitors retract that the so called “new” evidence is in fact rather old. However if any is presented in court that was put out by myself earlier as new this will be rigorously challenged. If solicitors give false information on dates when released and pass off old as new … what hope for truth and justice! We cannot have lawyers colluding with those that harmed us…. That would be a major “conflict of interest”! If the Haemophilia Society is also knowingly supporting media and lawyers putting out false dates of knowledge that is also a major “conflict of interest” and no different to behaviour of the past. Relevant people have now been informed that information is far from new and that I was blocked. Colette and I have many old letters highlighting this.

http://www.collinslaw.co.uk/post.php?s=2017-07-04-momentum-in-contaminated-blood-scandal-grows-as-collins-apply-for-a-group-litigation-order-collins-solicitors-press-release-dated-4-july-2017

So if lawyers have backtracked as you suggest please share. We aim to go to court on the evidence as it was produced not on a false narrative… (people pretending its new just so they can get into the press). Why on earth would I share evidence with campaigners or lawyers putting out a false narrative or doing damage limitation for government. This is also abusive behaviour to those that have repeatedly presented this evidence to government that was ignored… to Lord Hunt, to Yvette Cooper and to Anne Milton and many others

I did receive a reply to my public question from the Haemophilia Society on the 22nd August 2017 which should have elicited a public response but the Haemophilia Society as ever is shrouded in secrecy and did not want the reply made public. They have a long history of threatening those who oppose them therefore it was no surprise to be on the receiving end of a written threat once again though the email is marked “confidential” so the content cannot be shared here. 

This is disturbing given they are an organization that is supposed to help and advise members and the reasons Collins Law launched their case is a matter of public interest for which they themselves were keen to speak to press and put out a public statement. The Haemophilia Society has a long history of destroying documents allegedly to hide wrongdoing. The disappearance of documents was recently confirmed by a former staff member. They have a long history of intimidating haemophiliacs and their families which must be addressed at any forthcoming Public Inquiry! Those who question or challenge are left out of meetings. There are also instances where confidentiality has been breached. In addition to ongoing issues with the Society, female campaigners face daily misogyny and abuse despite working hard to release key evidence.

Back in the 1990s the Haemophilia Society threatened to remove me from a protest because I was campaigning for those with HIV and at that time they did not want haemophiliacs with both HIV and hepatitis C at Westminster fighting for justice and were EXCLUDING those with HIV. The Haemophilia Society caused great distress dividing off haemophiliacs by virus, pitting one haemophiliac against another. This was extremely cruel causing serious splits within families.
