Teuta Hoxha, a 29-year-old on remand for over a year, is now on her 43rd day of a hunger strike in a UK prison, prompting fears from her family that she could die if the government does not intervene. Her sister Rahma describes Teuta's declining health and emotional support for her siblings, highlighting the personal toll of her prolonged detention without trial. Teuta is one of eight prisoners on hunger strike, all denying charges related to alleged break-ins or criminal damage, and demanding changes including the end of UK arms exports to Israel and immediate bail. The government has stated it will not intervene, emphasizing the independence of the judiciary and the constitutional separation of powers, while families warn that young people may die in custody without being convicted of any crime.
