However I must warn you that I intend to help out even more!

[This is for free!]

THE worried mother of two Australian men held in a tough Yemeni prison [possibly being tortured, for the Australian Government] for three weeks on suspicion [scapegoat related charges] of terrorism [denied basic freedom] yesterday appealed to the Government for help.

Rabiah Hutchison [allegedly] said the focus should not be on her, or her [alleged] past connection to terrorist figures, [more scapegoats], but on her two sons who have been locked alone in their cells [possibly being tortured] with no help from embassy officials. [Because embassy officials may well be in on it?]

Her lawyer, Adam Houda, said the Government had ignored pleas to provide her sons Abdullah Mustafa Ayub, 21, and Mohammed Elias Ayub, 19, with legal assistance.

[Which goes without saying if your embassy is in on it?]

Mr Houda said he had sent a letter to Foreign Minister Alexander Downer last week seeking assistance for his clients but had not received a response.

"It's quite disappointing considering the urgency of the matter," he said. "It's his duty to ensure the safety of these two young men. We fear for their safety because Yemen has a poor record when it comes to human rights."

Mr Houda said Ms Hutchinson had received only an email from the Department of Foreign Affairs with a list of lawyers to contact in Yemen.

"It's disappointing that under these circumstances and in light of the family's meagre financial circumstances that legal assistance has not been offered by the Government. After all, these are Australian citizens," he said.

[Allegedly] A relative of Ms Hutchison said the brothers' father, Abdul Rahim Ayub, [allegedly] a leader of the [alleged] Jemaah Islamiah terror group, [that was never heard of by Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono when he became president] was a "smoke screen to sway public opinion against the brothers' cause".

[Allegedly] Indonesian Muslim radical leader Abdul Rahim Ayub was Jemaah Islamiah head in Australia until he [allegedly] fled the country shortly after the 2002 Bali bombings.

[Australia's Terrorism Wake Up Call [164]
The horrific bombings of the Sari Club and Paddy's Bar in Bali, on October 12, 2002, considerably strengthened the hand of the CoW in pursuing the War on Terror. Here was an opportunity to harden the hearts of the Australian and US public against Islamic fundamentalists. It was also a chance for the Indonesian government to justify harsh measures in the war against terrorists and secessionists, such at those in the province of Aceh.]

 http://melbourne.indymedia.org/news/2006/03/107756.php

Mudgee-born Rabiah Hutchison, is an [alleged] 'strict'] Muslim who wears a burqa. She divorced Abdul Rahim Ayub in the mid-1990s. She [allegedly] went to Afghanistan around 2000 with her boys but left after the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks on the US [false flag by G W Bush]. She returned to Sydney and in 2003 sent her two sons to Yemen to study Islam and learn Arabic.

It is understood ASIO has kept a close watch on Ms Hutchison for years.
