Still here Still Fighting / Removal were stayed Friday afternoon (Posted 17/11/08)
"Alliance Ngondiop is back in Leicester and we want to say a huge thanks to the many people who have supported her. Let's celebrate big time but also remember that the fight is not over. She has been released as her fresh asylum claim has entered the system and is being considered by the Home Office but also because she applied to the European Court of Human Rights and they intervened insisting that she be given time to defend herself here in this fresh claim. The case is a fresh claim and almost 99% of them get refused but lets pray and hope that Alliance is the 1 in a 100."
Andrew Shefford, for the Campaign <ashefford@hotmail.com>
Sixth attempt to remove Alliance Ngondiop
 Alliance Ngondiop, a Cameroon national and resident of Leicester,was 'Captured' when reporting to the Immigration service on Wednesday 3rd September and is currently detained in Yarl's Wood Immigration Removal Centre and due to be forcibly removed from the UK on British Airways flight BA302 on Saturday 15th November @ 06:15 from Heathrow Airport London, to Paris, Charles de Gaulle airport, then Air France flight AF940 @ to Douala Cameroon.
A private solicitor is acting on Alliance's behalf and has submitted a fresh claim However the Home Office reject almost 100% of fresh claims. If enough people put pressure on the right points of the removal chain we may be able to stop it again. If she is refused the only other option is to apply for Judicial Review through the solicitor today however most of her funds have gone towards the fresh claim so we can not pay the solicitor to do it. If you wish to donate towards funding a Judicial Review for Alliance you can do so at http://alliance.terryburton.co.uk/donate.html
Please support Alliance in her fight to stay in the UK where she has community ties. She should not be forced back to her country to suffer more abuse, stigmatization, isolation, or threats to her life by an abusive family. There is no guarantee that the police in Cameroon will protect her from abuse, given the level of corruption that exists in the police force in that country today, which human rights reports have highlighted as a major problem in Cameroon. This will be the sixth attempt to remove Alliance

Alliance Ngondiop Staying till at least 18th July
"Hi there Just to say that I have just had a call from Lizzie Dowd Parliamentary Assistant to the Office of Keith Vaz MP to say that Keith has been in touch with a minister in the Home Office who has agreed that the deportation be deferred till at least the 18th July and a review of the case be carried out in the mean time!" Regards Andy
Alliance Ngondiop Must Stay!
Alliance Ngondiop, a Cameroon national, is currently detained in Yarl's Wood IRC and due to be forcibly removed from the UK on Friday 11th July 2008 at 06:15hrs on British Airways Flight BA302 to Paris and onward to Douala, Cameroon.
Alliance came to UK to visit her niece. However her husband who had accompanied her had to return after 4 months because of work reasons. Alliance continued to stay on to assist her niece who had given birth to a premature baby. Whilst here, Alliance received a phone call from her husband in Cameroon to say that their toddler daughter had fallen sick and died suddenly. Her visa had expired 29.06.05 - she overstayed without being aware as it was her husband who arranged the travel from Cameroon to UK and it was her husband's niece who had control of Alliance's passport when the husband had left UK.
When in late 2005, Alliance had been diagnosed with ill health; Alliance's husband became very abusive on hearing the news of the HIV. He was screaming at her for agreeing to have the HIV test without his consent. He hung up on her and when she contacted him later, insisting that he too take the HIV test, he threatened to kill her on her return to Cameroon.
Alliance sought asylum at Home Office in Liverpool on 18 February 2008. Then Alliance was moved from Coventry to Birmingham pending the outcome of her asylum claim. On 6 March there was a Home Office full hearing with Solihull Home Office. A solicitor was present. When the asylum case failed, her solicitor contacted her with that information on 9th April 2008. On Wednesday 16 April her solicitor told her that she was not prepared to represent her for the appeal, as she did not feel the case was strong enough. Alliance has not been able to find a solicitor and made her appeal without representation.
On Wednesday 2nd July 2008 she was at her weekly signing in Loughborough when she was detained and informed that her claim for asylum had been refused. Then she was taken to Yarl's Wood where she is now.
Her husband and extended family in Cameroon have threatened to kill Alliance if she comes back to the country. In May'08, Alliance telephoned Cameroon and learnt that her estranged husband had visited her father a week earlier, and that there had been a lot of shouting and screaming between the two men. The neighbour found Alliance's father bound up and dead a few days after that visit by Alliance's husband.
Home Office want to remove the Alliance because Cameroon is considered safe and her life is not considered at risk despite the fact that Alliance is HIV positive and has no family to return to in Cameroon to help her when her health fails. Her father is dead and her mother is dead.
She should not be forced back to Cameroon to return to her angry and threatening husband. To return her to Cameroon now to face isolation and social rejection is a very inhumane act by the UK Home Office. Given that Alliance is getting a lot of support from her local church and also the hospital and Terence Higgins Trust. Her health issues, and that she has been a victim of abuse and rape, sending her back where she will not be able to afford the medical treatment for her conditions is going to make her quality of life back in Cameroon very bad indeed. Especially to face the lack of family support and financial means to provide accommodation and medical care for herself.
Please support Alliance in her fight to stay in the UK where she has community ties. She should not be forced back to her country to suffer more abuse, stigmatization, isolation, or threats to her life by an abusive family. There is no guarantee that the police in Cameroon will protect her from abuse, given the level of corruption that exists in the police force in that country today, which human rights reports have highlighted as a major problem in Cameroon.
