On Friday the 21st of May, it was reported that at least four Guantanamo detainees had to be physically restrained from committing suicide at Guantanamo.  This is a very alarming development and of great concern to the families whose loved ones are still held there. As we understand, from the scant reports we have, several other detainees were involved in a scuffle with the guards. Yet the British government is refusing to act on behalf of British residents still detained at Guantanamo.  The detainees have been in detention for over four years without any end in sight. The families have already expressed grave concern about the health of several of the British residents still detained at Guantanamo. Omar Deghayes’s eyesight is affected by the treatment he received during interrogations at the hands of the American interrogators at Guantanamo. Today’s events makes the families concern about the health and safety of these detainees even more urgent.
