Quotable: Arundhati Roy on anti-terror laws

“Anti-terrorism laws are not meant for terrorists; they’re for people that governments don’t like. That’s why they have a conviction rate of less than 2%. They’re just a means of putting inconvenient people away without bail for a long time and eventually letting them go.”

–Arundhati Roy, “The Monster in the Mirror”
