Habeas Corpus has been with us for 800 years. It gave the British citizen the right not be detained without charge. It also made the presumption of innocence until proven guilty into law. This fundamental foundation of British law has been upheld until today. Terror suspects in the UK have had these rights taken away under the Terrorism Act. Only suspicion is required to detain these people for 28 days. Suspects can be held under house arrest (control orders) indefinitely.
Maloud Sihali was arrested under suspicion of making ricin. He has been cleared in court, but remains under house arrest. This is only one example of how miscarriages of justice have occurred through the climate of fear, and anti-terror laws.
