Atthe meeting there were old friends of yours; academics who have read your booksand articles; Doctoral and Master’s Students who are inspired by your examplesof courage and lucidity about the situations you have described; previousdetainees who have known what you are suffering now; were all gathered togetherto sign this postcard. We hope you will have an opportunity to read when youcome home.&#160; We,professors and scholars of King’s College London, Oxford, Birkbeck, Goldsmith, Cambridgeand Queen Mary, are all asking for your immediate and unconditional releasefrom prison.&#160; Your detention is legallyand ethically unjustifiable. &#160;It poses athreat to all academics and to academic freedom in general.
