Mr Gafar Ali Hassan And Mrs Ali Hassan

EDM number 1284 in 2007-08, proposed by Michael Clapham on 31/03/2008.
Categorised under the topics of Asylum, Human rights, Immigration and Iraq.

That this House is most concerned that Mr Gafar Ali Hassan and Mrs Ali Hassan who fled from Iraq to the UK in 2006 in fear of their lives have been told to prepare to return: considers that this decision fails to comprehend that Mr Hassan's Baa'th connections and rank of Lieutenant-Colonel in the Iraqi armed forces until 2000 make him a militia target; believes that if he were returned to Iraq there is a high risk of Mr Hassan being murdered; and calls on the Minister for Immigration and Asylum to intervene and give him and his wife the right to sanctuary until their well-being can be guaranteed.

This motion has been signed by a total of 19 MPs.
