Early Day Motion

Members of Parliament work for you and we need to make it clear to them what we think about the unjust treatment the ten Pakistani students are receiving from the UK administration. These are ten young Muslim men, from meagre backgrounds whose families have made tremendous sacrifices to try and educate these young men so they can provide for their families. The families are concerned that their sacrifices may be wasted if these students return to Pakistan without completing their education. Also, they may face threats from some intelligence services in the region. Already several thousand individuals are missing in Pakistan.

Mohammad Sarwar, a member of Parliament of Pakistani origin has submitted an Early day motion demanding the students immediate release so that they can continue their studies.

Please get your member of Parliament to sign the Early Day Motion.

EDM 1453

DETENTION OF PAKISTANI STUDENTS

Sarwar, Mohammad

That this House calls on the Home Office to intervene in the case of the 11 Pakistani students arrested on 8 April 2009 as part of a security operation and released into UK Border Agency detention without charge and who are currently awaiting removal from the UK; notes that these students were not charged and that as such the human rights of these individuals are being materially breached; further notes that the fundamental tenet and basis of the UK justice system is being innocent until proven guilty; and calls for their immediate release to enable them to resume their studies.
