Today, 9 April 2010, the Justice Council Court concluded the trials of Mustafa Sayw and Kamal Al-Na'san; two of four persons whose cases Alkarama brought to the attention of the Special Rapporteur on Torture on 27 October 2009. It is feared that confessions extracted under torture were used against them in the trial. Among the four individuals whose cases Alkarama sent to the Special Rapporteur on Torture there was also Kamal Al-Na'san's brother, Malik Al-Na'san, who was freed after nine months in detention.
