is mounting that the issues behind the recent disturbance at Harmondsworth
detention centre - the apparent failure of the private firms which run
detention centres to provide full care to detainees and the emerging evidence

Arie Alert Net London 12th August 2004
- A year after the end of a half-decade war that killed a jaw-dropping 3.5
million Congolese, mostly through starvation and disease, fierce fighting
continues in the remote, eastern part of the country.
With the situation showing no sign of improving, AlertNet takes a detailed
look at the dynamics behind a crisis described by the United Nations as one
of the world's biggest humanitarian disasters.
