Mordechai Vanunu
EDM number 392 in 2003-04, proposed by Jeremy Corbyn on 12/01/2004.
That this House welcomes the forthcoming release of Dr Mordechai Vanunu, the Israeli whistleblower and voice for peace, in April 2004, after 17 1/2 years in prison, 12 of which were, regrettably, spent in solitary confinement; calls upon the Foreign and Commonwealth Office to contact the Israeli authorities to confirm the definite date and time of Mr Vanunu's release and, furthermore, to establish that no conditions will be attached to his release; and calls upon Israel, as an additional move towards peace in the Middle East, to follow the example of the Libyan President and renounce its dependence on nuclear weapons, and to engage with the Independent Atomic Energy Agency to initiate a process of inspection of its nuclear weapons, installations and production facilities.
This motion has been signed by a total of 75 MPs.
