Los Barrios vows to free Jorge Cano and Juan José Ramirez Ruíz | dscriber: "On Monday evening, the people of Los Barrios gathered at the town's cinema to form an action group to fight for the release of Jorge Cano and Juan José Ramirez Ruíz in the wake of an appeal court ruling last week in Tangier that confirmed their three-year jail sentence for drug trafficking as well as a fine of 170,000 euros. Andalucía's ombudsman, José Chamizo, called the court's decision an 'outrage,' claiming there was no strong evidence against the pair. Moreover, he said evidence also proves their innocence, suggesting the conviction of the pair was politically motivated.
The Plataforma Cívica de 'Libertad para Jorge y Juan José' was established by the residents of Los Barrios with the specific purpose of achieving their release and return home. The pair have been held since June 5. That's when their boat was rescued by a Moroccan patrol after they became lost whilst fishing in fog. The two drifted to the North African country's shoreline."
