TORTURE IN CANADA

October 3 1996 at 3:30 pm RCMP Sergeant Zeike and RCMP Constable Hudson entered my private property and came into my home without a warrant or any form of lawful jurisdiction and manipulated the time and my transport which was the result of bogus charges so that I was kept in jail for an extended peroid of time and then tortured by being chained at the feet and wrists and around my waist and left in an unheated

unventalated truck van until I convulsed repeatedly and I have been very badly crippled since then.

The RCMP on isolated rural Vancouver Island exercise a brutal combative and reactive form of Police abuse taking advantage of the isolation the distance from urban centres the difficulties posed citizens who are abused by these Officers in that these persons such as myself are often alone and if we are hauled away from our rural properties it is very difficult to get back without having an automobile with us.

There is an attitude that every concivable or imagined offence has to be pursued and that if no evidence of any wrong doing is turned up try to find something else to charge against a citizen who has done nothing to harm anyone. Furthermore they make it plain as they hector and intimidate and rave at property owners and citizens that they don't think the penalties are stiff enough for any offence no matter how many or even if it's some form of statement offence where they simply take the word of a complaintant.

Continual incursions onto private property without lawful purpose by tresspassers Police and Regional District Enforcement Officers create a stuation where persons such as myself will simply tell them to go and get lost and stop with their nonsence. This unfortunetly as these Officers do not recongnize the authority of ownership creates a situation where they actually write in their files that they plan to try to charge an individual who has broken no laws but has offended him.

Hal Zeike and I invite you to access the articles he wrote in the Sooke BC News Mirror . He came to my door and  said that the letters that I wrote lawfully complaining had annoyed alot of people. I ended up chained up and tortured and crippled and the specific complaint which was used as an excuse to lock me up and torture me could not be supported by any evidence not even the complaintant was willing to swear under oath that the allegations he had made were true. I was chained up and tortured right here in Canada and I am still badly crippled. Is it really much more important what happened to one Afghan citizen at the hands of other Afghan citizens than what has been done to Canadian Citizen Lindon Collard right here in Canada? I know absolutly what is more important.
