#Belgium #Hungerstrike 1/
(Machine translation)
Several people are currently leading hunger strikes at the 127bis closed center. An entire wing has refused to eat ever since this Tuesday February 17. With their strike, the detainees want denounce the injustice of their detention, some of which sometimes extends over long durations (which can be up to 9 months or more than a year, 18 months being the maximum duration), and inhumane treatment by doctors as well as center staff.
A concerned detainee, on strike for 15 days, testifies: Since I arrived here I have done the integration courses, I have done the language training, I have had C1, university level. I've never had any problems. A police officer came to his home to invite him to follow him to the police station and send him to a closed center. He quickly began a hunger strike after arriving in the center.
" I go out free or I go out dead. They say I'm a danger. For who? For what? Yesterday I passed out, my heart rate went up to 230. They don't care.The doctor makes fun of me, he laughs. He says “you're going to leave anyway, alive or in a coffin, one or the other.” "
