Dear friends, On Monday I sent the petition with the first 4280 signatures to Malcolm Turnbull's office by post, and advised him of the letter by email. The petition should have arrived by now. I will be sending the petition regularly to Malcolm Turnbull's office as it grows in length. This gives him the opportunity to respond and solve the problem without having to wait for a fixed number of signatures. I would be grateful if you could forward the link to your friends and community leaders, including church leaders, other politicians, activists, lawyers, doctors, whoever you think. We are nearly at 5,000 signatures which is quite an achievement for 10 days. Behnam has sent you a message. In this message he refers to living with a constant fear of being killed. This is his situation on Manus Island and it must stop. He must be brought to Australia without delay. "I would like to thank every single one of you who signed my petition and supported it. Words cannot express my appreciation to you all. Every day I feel I might be killed at any moment and there is no place to hide in or run to. Every road ends at fences here! Your support has given me strength. I wish I will be able to survive till freedom so that I and everyone in all the detention centres can thank you guys in person. Thank you so much."
