The murderer has not been found,
Four powerful security agencies are responsible for the investigation,
For finding answers to who murdered Juliano and why,
So that justice can prevail.
After one year of fruitless investigations,
We demand results!
We demand justice!
What: Demonstration
When: 4 April 2012 at 11:00
Where: Palestinian Police Headquarters in Ramallah (Muqa’tah)
On the 4th of April 2012 The Freedom Theatre will cancel all its artistic activities. We will do so because on this day one year ago, Juliano Mer Khamis, co-founder of The Freedom Theatre and its visionary leader was murdered, and the murderer has not yet been found. We do not feel that those responsible for investigating the murder are fulfilling their obligations to uphold justice.
On the 4th of April at 11:00, we are going to stage a demonstration outside the Muqattah in Ramallah to demand justice for Juliano. We encourage artists, activists and all those who support freedom of expression to do the same. We ask you to join us in this demonstration because we believe that when one artist is attacked, all artists are attacked.
On the 4th of April at 20:00 the Arab Theatre in Jaffa will stage an evening of performances in tribute to the work and activism of Juliano Mer Khamis. Among the participants are Juliano’s former students, DAM and many more.
Another tribute event will be held on the same night at 20:00 at Al Midan Theatre in Haifa. The evening will feature music, short films, a theatrical performance by acting students from Jenin, and more.
If you plan or wish to carry out an event in honour of Juliano, we ask that you keep us informed so that we may offer assistance and additional publicity. We also suggest that all events take into consideration the children Juliano left behind.
