Rally in support of Hassan Almrei, a security certificate detainee of two years, who went on a hunger strike in the hopes of getting shoes, a sweater and a higher temperature in his cold, basement prison cell.

Five guards from the detention centre testified on Almrei's behalf, saying that they always wore winter coats when working in that part of the prison because of the terrible cold.
