Letter from Attorney Robert R. Bryan 12/4/06 Dear Friends: Last month my client, Mumia Abu-Jamal, and I sent letters to officials in Paris in response to a fraudulent political attempt to have his honorary citizenship there revoked. I am pleased to report that the effort, based upon misrepresentations and lies, has failed. Mumia, a great and courageous journalist, continues to be an honorary citizen of Paris. Further, the street named after him in Saint Denis remains "Rue Mumia Abu-Jamal". Linn Washington, a prominent Philadelphia journalist and university professor, recently wrote an enlightening article in CounterPunch on the entire affair: The Mumia Abu-Jamal Case After 25 Years: Still More Keystone Kops Antics, Dec. 1, 2006. It should be read and circulated, and can be found at counterpunch.org. Your interest is appreciated. With best wishes, Robert ========= Law Offices of Robert R.
