Canada's Shamefully Flawed Extradition Process

Why is France So Determined to prosecute Prof. Hassan Diab after all these years on virtually no evidence?  And why has Canada been so willing to comply?

See Video of Press Conference held this morning: LINK

Message from Justice for Hassan Diab received yesterday:

Miscarriage of justice and flawed extradition process ongoing issues in Hassan Diab’s case

As you recall, Dr. Hassan Diab returned to Canada in January 2018 after enduring more than three years without charge in a French prison, mostly in solitary confinement. Despite evidence of Hassan’s innocence, the French prosecutor filed an appeal with the Court of Appeal in France asking that Hassan be put on trial.

The French Court of Appeal postponed its decision regarding whether to refer Hassan’s case to trial in France or dismiss the case. Rather, the Court of Appeal ordered a review of the French handwriting analysis report (“Bisotti’s report”) which was subjected to strong criticism by leading handwriting analysis experts during Hassan’s extradition hearing in Canada a decade ago. Notwithstanding these criticisms, Hassan was extradited to France in 2014, almost entirely on the basis of the deeply flawed Bisotti’s report.

Following the review ordered by the French Court of Appeal, two new French handwriting analysis experts delivered a scathing critique and rebuke of Bisotti’s report that mirror the critique by the defence during the extradition hearing. The French Court of Appeal is expected to render a decision regarding Dr. Diab’s case on January 27, 2021.

Essentially, there are two options for the Court of Appeal judge: uphold the prosecutor’s appeal and send Hassan to trial for a crime he did not commit, or deny the appeal and confirm Hassan’s innocence. Either way, the fundamental miscarriage of justice and the radically flawed extradition process remain ongoing issues to be addressed.

Livestream of Press conference, Wednesday January 27 - 11 AM

On January 27, there will be a press conference on Hassan Diab’s case. You are invited to watch the press conference livestream on Facebook. At the press conference, Don Bayne (Hassan’s Canadian lawyer), Alex Neve (former secretary general of Amnesty International - Canada), and Robert Currie (Schulich School of Law, Dalhousie University) will react to the French Court of Appeal decision, which is expected on January 27.

What:  Press conference reacting to decision by French Court of Appeal on Dr. Hassan Diab’s case and the findings of the two new French handwriting analysis experts.
When:  Wednesday January 27, 2021, at 11:00 am EST

Hey Yaya!
I see this is back in the news and in motion again
I keep asking why?
Why now?

"Donald Bayne, Professor Diab’s Canadian lawyer, called the decision a continuation of “a long odyssey of injustice” that flies in the face of evidence. Speaking at a virtual news conference, Mr. Bayne said that when Professor Diab’s case was dismissed in 2018, victims were outraged and lobbied aggressively for an appeal, leading to the decision delivered in Paris on Wednesday."

aggressive lobbying? I mean victim's always lobby and most of the time they get nothing.

So are their players, bigger players, behind this matter pulling strings?

You're making me say it, aren't ya. ;-]

It was a synagogue that got bombed and the Jewish population of France want satisfaction, and they won't give up. In the absence of any real intel it seems that Diab is the closest France can come to providing a sacrificial lamb. Arabs are notoriously bad people -- just look at all the trouble the Arabs in Gaza are causing, eh?

And the former (now dead) Prime Minister made some big boo-boos when talking about the bombing, so that, alone, has to be compensated for:

The Prime Minister, Raymond Barre, on 3 October said on TF1: "This odious bombing wanted to strike Jews who were going to the synagogue and it hit innocent French people who crossed the Copernic street", a Freudian slip that his words of the 8 October in the National Assembly, assuring his "Jewish compatriots" of the "sympathy of the all nation", failed to assuage. Just before his death in August 2007, Raymond Barre attributed this campaign of protestations to "Jewish lobby".
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1980_Paris_synagogue_bombing#Statement_by_Raymond_Barre

I guess the "campaign" didn't end with Barre's death. Someone has to pay or France's Jews may retaliate, perhaps by leaving and taking their contributions with them.

One might almost think the French are attempting to hide an "inside job" by grasping at straws. Maybe they thought if they could pin it on a bonafide Ayrab, they could appease the constant hounding they've been getting from the Jewish population?

I'm just guessing. Whatever the reason, it's a terrible thing to have happened to France's Jews, and an equally terrible nightmare for Hassan Diab and his family.
