A letter was handed into the Lithuanian Embassy in Dublin at the weekend by the family of Liam Campbell who is facing extradition to Lithuania.

To the Lithuanian Embassy,

We gather here today, in defiance, against the Lithuanian state and their officials, operating from Dublin, who seek to bring about a British backed attempt to force the extradition of Liam Campbell, from Ireland to Lithuania. A foreign Country, Liam Campbell was Never in!

Having endured successive European arrest warrants issued by the Lithuanian state, served on him by agents of the British and their Free State counterparts here in Ireland, we the people demand an end to the of injustices suffered daily by Liam Campbell. We come united, alongside the Campbell family to show our conviction and solidarity to Stop The Extradition Of Liam Campbell!



As far back as January 2009 Liam Campbell was arrested and issued with his first extradition warrant. Four months later, whilst on bail, he was wrongfully re-arrested by the British, who by stealth, overseen a second extradition warrant by the Lithuanian State, in May 2009.

Imprisoned in Maghaberry Prison, Belfast, Liam Campbell was held in solitary confinement for four years. He was NEVER questioned, nor convicted of a crime! Liam won his case in the High Court in March 2013. It was appealed by the British in the Supreme Court in London, who ruled in August 2013 there was no case to answer.

Liam Campbell was returned to his family. What Liam did not know was that a third extradition warrant was issued by the Lithuanian state also in August 2013 and held for 3 years, before being sent to Dublin. In December 2016, Liam Campbell was arrested for a third time which began his most recent struggle against extradition.

This is scheduled to take place by order of the High Court in Dublin on Monday 13th July 2020; 9 days from now.

We strenuously denounce all attempts to render him into the barbaric and unsanitary prison conditions as evidenced in reports made by the Committee for the prevention of torture and degrading treatment (CPT) in 2018 and consistent in their report in 2019.

Reports which detail to us the extreme prisoner on prisoner gang violence (foreign prisoners, in particular, are targeted), accounts of sexual assault, inhumane treatment and intimidation perpetrated by "special intervention units", notorious within the Lithuanian prison regime of today.

Locked in pre-trial detention, 24 hours a day for an unknown number of years, with restrictive access to his legal documents only partially transcribed in his native tongue, and only at the discretion of a foreign state prosecutor, hell-bent on securing a corrupt conviction.

Notwithstanding, that in May 2018 a European Court delivered a damning guilty verdict against Lithuanian state, otherwise known as "Camp Violet" by CIA militia, for their involvement in operating "black sites" used as torture chambers; and a litany of successive abuses which resulted in hefty convictions from the European courts and testament to their ingrained flagrant denial of fair trial rights and failure to safeguard the right of citizens, including our own Irish citizens who have suffered extensively in the hands of this Lithuanian state.

Lithuania, we call you out on your states abuse of process that would prevent repatriation to Ireland for Liam Campbell, in your denial of rights as set out in the United Nations declaration on human rights act (UDHR) in the charter of fundamental rights (1998). They are not rights for good behaviour but alienable entitlements to all people.

We hereby declare our full support and determination to Stop The Extradition Of Liam Campbell! and call for an end, to an 11.5-year long witch hunt of our countryman.

Our determination will not waiver!

    Oh horseshite, the big bad Brits REFUSED to extradite him from Belfast 7 years ago due to humanitarian concerns regarding Lithuanian prisons! Why wouldn't they have simply extradited him then?
