Demonstrators in orange jumpsuits and black hoods held a vigil opposite Downing Street calling for liberty and justice for Shaker Aamer the last Londoner held in Guantanamo.
Shaker Aamer has been held illegally without charge or trial at Guantánamo Bay detention camp for eight years. He is a British resident and his wife and four children are citizens of the UK and live in London. Despite being cleared for release since 2007, efforts to repatriate him have inexplicably stalled.
