Mr Osman Mohammed Faraj told IFIR that he had been taken from Harmondsworth detention centre in handcuffs to Heathrow airport and placed aboard a Turkish Airlines flight to Istanbul. <\/p>\n
Mr Faraj complained about pains in his Kidney as he was placed on the plane. The security guards however, ignored him and bound leather straps around his body. Mr Faraj screamed in pain and called for help in Turkish. As a result he was removed from the plane and returned to the detention centre.
\n
\nIFIR would like to thank <\/p>\n
\u00b7 Medical Justice who wrote a report supporting Mr Faraj\u2019s case on medical grounds, <\/p>\n
\u00b7 Mr Faraj\u2019s legal representative <\/p>\n
\u00b7 All campaigners who supported Mr Faraj. <\/p>\n
Up to 30 Kurdish Iraqi refugees held in detention centres are threatened with forcible deportation to Baghdad (Iraq). The plan is to remove them one by one via Turkish Air lines. <\/p>\n
On 31 May 2022 IFIR alongside other refugee campaign groups prevented a planned forcible deportation charter flight to Erbil, Northern Iraq (Kurdish area of Iraq). <\/p>\n
IFIR urges all refugee rights, human right organizations and trade unions to support our campaign against forcible deportation to Iraq. <\/p>\n
