Zimbabwean 2 Year Old Toddler Freed From Maximum Security Prison
These photos of 2 years old Nigel were taken by AFP yesterday, Wednesday, January 14 2008, a day after Nigel was released from Maximum Security Prison and five days after we started the petition to free him, which galvanised online opinion amazingly The Zimbabwean 2 year old toddler, Nigel Mutemagau (above), for whom I started a petition on this blog last Thursday, has been freed from a Maximum Security Prison where he was being kept in solitary confinement with his mother. Nigel was freed on Tuesday, five days after I started the petition on this blog. His mother and father remain in solitary confinement in the Zimbabwean Maximum Security Prison. Many thanks indeed to the Zimbabwe Lawyers For Human Rights, who have been fighting on this one. And a special thanks to you all for the amazing response we got on this story. I think that in the five days between my publishing his plight on this blog and his release, the world reacted magnificently, which gives me hope and faith in humanity....
