FRFI/ No Borders/Congo Suppor Project | 27.06.2007 22:29 | Anti-racism | Migration | London

Join the protest!

Monday 2 July 12-3pm - Congo Support Project demo against deportations to
(un)Democratic Republic of the Congo, Whitehall, opposite Downing Street,
London SW1

Tuesday 3 July 1-2pm - Fight Racism! Fight Imperialism! monthly protest at
Communications House Immigration Reporting Centre, Old Street, London EC1

DR Congo is not safe! Nobody should be deported there - well, nobody should be deported anyway, but especially to a war ravaged country where over 5 millions people have been killed. People are still dying as a result of conflict, and human rights violations, killings of civilians and recruitment of child soldiers continue. Deportees are handed over to the securety services, and if they are wanted by the authorities they are immediately detained and brought to prisons where they can easily die within a year, due to beatings, torture and lack of food. In many DRC prisons the only food is provided by volunteer orgainsations.

Close down Communication House, close all reporting centres! They are the first link in the chain of detention and deportations of asylum seekers and migrants.
People who go reporting can be detained any time. Some are so scared they cannot sleep at night before reporting.
