Student activist exile in PNG selected for human rights award
ABDUL Aziz Muhamat is a student activist from Darfur in Sudan had fled to the capital Khartoum, got into trouble and fled again to Australia seeking asylum. Muhamat has been advocating for the hundreds of men who are living in horrid, punitive conditions on the Manus Island Detention Centre in Papua New Guinea. He does this through the skillful use of social media and podcasts.
Director of the Martin Ennals Foundation Inc, Michael Khambatta, said Muhamat keeps things peaceful and he has been a voice to the wider world, particularly to Australia on the impact and consequences.
“The real thing that he highlights is not so much the actual conditions of the refugee camp in PNG but the fact that they have nowhere to go and they have no future,” Khambatta said.
He was amongst two others from Turkey and Colombia had been shortlisted and nominated for the finals into awarding of human rights awards by Martin Ennals Foundation.
The winners will receive a cash prize of $30,000. The two runners-up will receive $10,000 each.
Australian politicians detained refugees indefinely on Manus and Nauru to win votes by showing they are tough on immigration. - Via Garamut News.
