| Nauru Refugees Solve That Lip Problem |
| 2003-12-11 |
| A number of refugees on Nauru had gone on an indefinite hunger strike, some sewing their lips together, to coincide with world Human Rights Day, a refugee advocate said today. Hassan Ghulam, president of the Hazara Ethnic Society of Australia, said the refugees, including some children, wanted to stage a non-violent protest to highlight their plight. He said he had received a phone call from one of the Nauru refugees today, telling him of the hunger strike. "Hello?" "Muuufffhhhmm!" |
