Can we send this man back to die in Iran?

Robert Fisk reports today on the hanging chads in Iran. The police, he noted, first smash the opposition supporters in the face, then reinforce their message by smashing them in the genitals. He is not alone in such observations. Sunday’s papers are awash in bloody images of the ‘democracy in action’ in the land of the Ayatollahs. I had a copy of the IoS with me this morning when I visited the young Iranian convert who the HO tried to deport last week. I kept it from his view. He has enough on his mind without being shown graphic images of what may lie in store for him. These same police have issued a writ for him to turn himself in; for the ‘crime’ of converting to Christianity.   Harry's Place
