January 7, 2008 New York, NY—Attorneys from the International Justice Network (IJN) today denounced the Bush Administration for their continued refusal to provide access to IJN clients currently held at the Bagram Airforce Base prison camp. Amid recent reports in the New York Times detailing how the Bush Administration’s detention policy extends well beyond Guantánamo into facilities such as Bagram, IJN continues to express concern for their clients and call for the US government to comply with the Geneva Conventions and release civilians who are not involved in the conflict in Afghanistan.
