On Tuesday 20th of January 2009 the Cageprisoners "Two Sides, One Story -- Guantanamo From Boths Sides of the Wire Tour" -- a tour to mark seven years of unlawful detention, abuse and torture, came to Sheffield. Christopher Arendt (former Guantanamo guard, Iraq Veterans Against War,  http://ivaw.org ), Moazzam Begg (former Guantanamo prisoner, spokesperson for Cageprisoners,  http://cageprisoners.com/ ) and Omar Deghayes (former Guantanamo prisoner,  http://www.save-omar.org.uk/ ) were introduced by Jillian Creasy on behalf of the Sheffield Guantanamo Campaign. It was an outstanding and very moving event and the audio of the meeting is attached and some photos follow.
