American Green Beret Vet TED MAHER Held HOSTAGE by Monaco for 629 Days (Thread 6)

Ted Maher -- former Special Forces; Neonatal Intensive Care nurse

American Green Beret veteran and accomplished neonatal nurse Ted Maher has now been held 537 days without trial in Monaco's prison on trumped-up and false charges -- charges of causing the deaths of billionaire banker Edmond Safra and Ted's fellow nurse, Vivian Torrente on December 3, 1999. In truth, Ted fought valiantly against two armed, masked intruders to defend Edmond and Vivian and save their lives. During the struggle, Ted suffered severe knife wounds that required one hundred staples to close.

Billionaire banker Edmond Safra was cooperating with the FBI, who was investigating the IMF/Russian loans. Needing a convenient scapegoat for the murder of Safra, Monaco police subjected Ted to three days of grueling torture designed to extort a false confession from him. (see description in "BASIC TIMELINE" in Thread 1 - http://206.112.97.70/forum/a3ad8b097272d.htm ).

Monaco continues to hold Ted incommunicado, preventing him from sending or receiving mail. In fact, they restrict his communication with his family to one telephone call a week. This call is only allowed to last a few minutes and is always monitored closely to prevent any discussion of the case. Ted is forced by his jailers to take a psychotropic medication and is regularly "interrogated" by the Monaco judge -- Patricia Richet. Reports have been received that Judge Richet is a violent person who has displayed unstable behavior in the past. She allegedly has a history of assaulting a fellow judge, putting him in the hospital for a week. She also tears up letters from Ted's children in front of Ted rather than let him read them.

Hundreds of family, friends, work associates, parents of patients, and Army veterans who served with Ted have vouched for him as being a loyal husband, loving father, and an exemplary professional of great skill and compassion. Ted has also been defended by then-chairman of the House International Relations Committee Ben Gilman and Ted's congresswoman Sue Kelly, who have written Prince Rainier III of Monaco on Ted's behalf. Monaco has no evidence of any crime by Ted; they have no witnesses and no credible case against him. Even worse, Monaco has planted false evidence and suppressed vast amounts of exculpatory evidence -- even passing a special Monaco law that enables them to hold Ted four years without trial.

The Geneva prosecutor has said that Safra was killed for his cooperation with the FBI regarding the laundering through Safra's Republic National Bank of $4.8 billion in IMF loans to Russia.

Regardless of the reason "why," it is obvious that Ted Maher is a scapegoat for a murder by others. We are working to obtain his release and to correct the grave injustice being done to an American Green beret veteran and medical professional.

Ted Maher -- a giver of life, not a taker -- needs our help.

7800 Siklos
Harkanyi u. 2/A, Hungary
Dated: 10th September, 2001

MINISTRY OF JUSTICE
MONACO

For the attention of the Minister in Charge

Subject: Second Appel

Dear Mr. Minister,

By the effected vertict no. 2009/00 of the Correctional Court of Monaco publicity declared on 6th March 2001 I have been acquited of suspicion of being involved in the Bank affair on 3rd October 2000.

By irrefutable material and other evidence it was proved that I was the victim of the false statments and set-up process and that heavy organised crime of kidnapping by a private person and an investigation officer of Monaco was done to me.

By this unusual illegal act large breach of basic and fundamental human rights was made and substantial ethical and material harm was done to me and to my family.

As a party who has suffered the loss outcoming from the above I had on the 13th of March 2001 forwarded to my Lawyer Mr. Morel the material evidence for compensation of the losses in the amount of DEM 37,692,000.00- and my Power of Attorney for pressing criminal charges against the person who has organised my kidnapping Mr. Luc Lopez and the investigation judge Mr. Jean-Christofe HULLIN.

On March 23rd, 2001 I have sent the appel to the Ministry of Justice of Monaco regarding this particular and case and teen days later the Ministry informed me in writing that they have appointed the person in charge to solve this case.

Desppite of this there is no adequate result until now and I have leart in th meantime that my Lawyer was called and asked not to undertake any furthere legal steps in connection with my case and that his career is under the threat.

Such behaviour of certain persons who are misusing their official capacity in order to suppres this case are causing my iustifyine doubts.

I cannot allow the persons who have infliced heavy criminal offence to go upunished and I cannot allow such persons to cary on unpunished with the similar set-ups against anyone else.

Taking into the consideration all stated above my Lawyers will file the criminal charges against the persons in question with the International Court in Den Hag and will file the case for the conpensation process.

Yourer faithfully,

Mair Selimi

NOTE HERE THE MONACO MACHINE AT WORK: THE INNOCENT IS FALSELY IMPRISONED--THEN HIS PURSUIT OF JUST COMPENSATION IS BLOCKED AND HIS LAWYER THREATENED--SO IT IS WITH TED MAHER: FALSE CONFESSION EXTORTED BY THREATENED VIOLENCE TO HIS CHILDREN, KIDNAPPING OF HIS WIFE, AND 649 DAYS OF WRONGFUL IMPRISONMENT WITHOUT TRIAL STRIPPING HIS FAMILY OF HOME, CAR, BELONGINGS--MONACO'S TYRANNY MUST NOT STAND
