I have just spoken to Bita's partner Mohsen and he has stated that the UK Home Office has refused to stay the deportation order of Bita Ghaedi.

I have just spoken to Bita's partner Mohsen and he has stated that the UK Home Office has refused to stay the deportation order of Bita Ghaedi.

The case has been refused on the basis of 'no new evidence' despite a huge amount of evidence being supplied to the home office regarding her humanitarian campaigning on behalf of the PMOI (People's Mujahedin Organisation of Iran).

She is now scheduled to be deported tomorrow at 7PM on flight BD931 to Tehran from Heathrow airport.

Despite a wealth of material regarding her case, Bita remains in very ill health at Yarls Wood Detention Centre, she has not been released.

More to be published tomorrow (5th may 2010.
