Hunger strike case reopened
artdoc May=1992

Sam Kulasingham ended an eight-week hunger strike on 6 April
after the Home Office agreed to a full re-investigation of his
conviction for murder in 1988. He was convicted after three
Tamils were killed in a firebomb attack in east London in 1986,
and in February the Court of Appeal rejected his appeal against
conviction. Kulasingham says that evidence against him was
obtained by beatings and threats of deportation by the police.
Independent 7.4.92.
