Ay
Family face Second Deportation
(posted 4th February 2004)
The
Ay Family who despite a magnificent year long fight by the
family and their supporters, were deported from the UK on
Tuesday 5th August 2003 to Germany have had their asylum claim
refused by the German authorities and are now to be deported
to Turkey.
Beriwan, 15, Newroz, 14, Dilovan, 12, and Medya, and their
mother Yurdugal, became household names during their struggle
to remain in the UK.
Pro-Asyl, a German organisation who support asylum seekers
and have been helping the Ay Family in Germany, dDescribed
the decision to reject their claim by the German authorities
as "tough, ignorant, and cynical".
