rule in favor of committal because Canada’s Extradition Law does not allow him
to discard the flawed handwriting evidence, even though he described it as “very
problematic”, “very confusing”, and with “suspect conclusions”.<BR><BR>The
handwriting analysis submitted by French authorities claims to have found a
resemblance between samples of Hassan’s handwriting and five words printed in
simplistic block letters on a Paris hotel registration card in
1980.<BR><BR>Hassan’s palm prints and finger prints do not match those of the
suspect. Yet this information was excluded by the court and was not
considered.<BR><BR><B

current bail will expire if the judge decides to commit Hassan for extradition.
We have launched a petition asking the bail judge at the Ontario Court of Appeal
to renew Hassan's bail while Hassan is appealing his extradition
order.<BR><BR>We urge you to sign our petition, <B>before June 6</B>,
at:<BR><BR><A
href="http://www.diabpetition.org/">http://www.diabpetition.org</A><BR><BR>Since
his release from detention on April 1, 2009, Hassan has dutifully abided by all
the terms of his bail, and has not committed a single infraction.<BR><BR>This
petition is not a declaration of guilt or innocence. Rather, it is an attempt to
uphold the principle of innocent until proven otherwise, and the right for
Hassan to be free on bail while defending himself in the courts.<B
