The National Committee for Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions against
Israel has called upon Saudi Arabia to stop dealing with G4S because the
security company is involved in Israel's violations of human rights in
the occupied Palestinian territories.
According to the BDS Committee, G4S has won contracts to offer security services to Muslim pilgrims in Makkah for the next year. The Committee affirmed its belief that the British company is complicit in maintaining the Israeli occupation. It said the G4S was supplying "torture equipment" used by Israeli investigators on Palestinian captives inside the Zionist regime's jails, including children. Many Palestinian and international human rights organisations have proved that G4S is involved in human rights abuses based on evidence that it supplies the Israeli occupation authorities and illegal Jewish settlers with equipment used in violating the rights of Palestinians. Other organisations lobbying for justice for the Palestinians, including Britain's Friends of Al-Aqsa, have also written to the Saudi authorities calling on them to cancel the G4S contract. |
