In response to the slanderous of the legal representative of the International Center for Supporting Rights and Freedoms, Ahmed Omar

Your letter is worded as a call to the ECOSOC and to the Kuwaiti Government to take punitive action against ICSFT. Your false allegations, your call for censorship and for redrawal of ECOSOC status from ICSFT cause great harm to our reputation and cause substantial damage to our activity which we cannot tolerate.

We therefore invite you, and in as far as necessary put you in default, to put an immediate end to your wrongful acts. In case of any new incident our organisation will not hesitate to take legal action to stop your wrongful activities and to demand compensation for the damage that has been caused.

Finally, we want to say that we have been surprised by your sudden volte face. As you know we had very good relations in the past and when the ICSFT President was under persecution in Kuwait you supported him which we appreciated strongly. The fact that we disagree on the question of the Sahara should result in respectful discussion and debate between us, not in slander and calls for punitive action against the other part. We hope that you will understand this in the interest of all so that we can get back to normal as soon as possible.
