Pakistani Hazara campaigner fights deportation from Britain |
2014-10-17 |
[DAWN] Lawyers for a leading activist from Pakistain's embattled Shia Hazara community made a last-minute bid on Thursday to stop his deportation from Britannia despite having received death threats from snuffies in his homeland. Liaquat Ali Hazara, 36, told AFP in a phone interview from the detention centre where he is being held in England that his lawyers had applied to cancel the expulsion set for Tuesday. "I fear they can disappear me from the airport upon my arrival," Hazara said, speaking from Morton Hall Immigration Removal Centre near Lincoln, central England. |
