Jamil Al-Amin needs our help! Please read and repost!
After filing a complaint with prison officials that his legal mail
from his wife was being opened by guards, Jamil Al-Amin was moved to another area of the Reidsville Prison. The area he is currently in is reserved for mental patients, and those who throw their food at guards. When Imam Jamil asked why he was moved to that area of the facility, he was informed that a guard (the same guard that illegally opened his mail) had put on his record that Jamil Al-Amin had assaulted him.
The food Jamil Al-Amin is being "served" is brought uncovered, and
fed to him through what can only be considered a troth (which is the way pigs and other farm animals are fed). Prison officials also use same opening used to push his food through to mop the dirty floor of the cell, furthering the possibility of contamination. This unsanitary food handling has prompted Imam Jamil to refuse the food from the Prison entirely, in essence Imam Jamil is on a hunger strike.
Jamil Al-Amin's defense team is asking that he be moved to another
facility because he is not
recieving fair treatment at Reidsville as a result of filing his
complaint.
We have an obligation to contact the Warden and ask for his fair
treatment.
Please write or call the Warden at the Reidsville Prison
Stephen Upton , Warden
Georgia State Prison
Reidsville, GA 30453
or call
(912) 557-7301
The initials of the guard that both opened Jamil Al-Amin's mail and
added the false assault incident to his record are "A.D".
Please remember not to make threats or allegations. Examples of
concerns to raise in your
correspondence would be the following:
Why was Jamil Al-Amin recently moved into an further isolation, and
to an area of the prison
reserved for patients with mental problems?
Why is Jamil Al-Amin still being held in Administrative
Segregation?
What is being done to ensure the best interests of Jamil Al-Amin's
safety and heath?
Please circulate this widely and do all you can to help Imam Jamil Al-Amin!
