After Being Released
On June 3, 2002, the Canadian government announced that they had been shown "no evidence" suggesting Hussein was linked to terrorism, and that charges were to be dropped. His name was removed from the Canadian list of individuals supporting terrorism, and later off the American and United Nations lists as well.
The Civil Liberties Association of Ottawa was quoted in newspapers that "the government destroyed this man's life without a single shred of evidence".

Famous quotes containing the word released:
“Justice has its anger, my lord Bishop, and the wrath of justice is an element of progress. Whatever else may be said of it, the French Revolution was the greatest step forward by mankind since the coming of Christ. It was unfinished, I agree, but still it was sublime. It released the untapped springs of society; it softened hearts, appeased, tranquilized, enlightened, and set flowing through the world the tides of civilization. It was good. The French Revolution was the anointing of humanity.”
—Victor Hugo (1802–1885)
