On Friday 14th December 2007 Nimco Mahamed Shire was attacked and wronlgy accused of assault by a house mate. She was arrested by Greater Manchester Police and taken to Longsight Police Station. She was then taken to a holding centre at Manchester Airport before being moved to the infamous Yarlswood detention centre
Nimco had sustained injuries as a result of the attack and was not given the right to medical aid until 2 days after her arrest. She is now awaiting a bail hearing and a flight has been booked for her deportation on 23rd January 2008
Please phone Yarlswood detention centre and demand Nimco is released. Nimco has helped many women through volunteering in her community and it would be a good idea to phone her local MP and ask for his support in her case
