No Detentions, No Deportations

The 28th August saw the Government’s plans come into
being that allows for the forced deportation of Iraqi
Kurds to Iraq, based on the claim that it is now safe
for return. 

Following a meeting

of local Kurdish and Yemeni communities, protests
[http://www.indymedia.org.uk/en/regions/sheffield/2005/09/322496.html]
against this policy of forced deportations were
organised in Sheffield by the Campaign Against
Detention and Deportation of Iraqis.

It was agreed at the meeting to hold demonstrations
every Saturday at 2pm in the Peace Gardens. Over 100
people turned out for the first demonstration on
August 27th.
