Solidarity protest outside Glasgow Immigration Centre tomorrow

UNITY | 15.09.2006 14:36 | Anti-racism | Migration

Support asylum seeker families who have to report at the Glasgow Immigration centre at Festival Court, Brand Street (near to the Cessnock Underground station) Families are required to report here weekly or monthly and can be detained without warning and taken to detention centres. Thanks to weekly protests earlier this year, families reporting on Saturdays now only have to report once a month. Tommorrow is when the families are due to report in September.

Vigil - Saturday 16th September

Just a reminder about the vigil outside the Glasgow Immigration Centre tomorrow (Saturday 16th September) at 10am.

The vigil is also being called in support of Mireille who was taken off a flight to the Congo from Glasgow Airport on Wednesday and is still in hospital recovering from her ordeal and is at threat of a second removal at any time. Mireille is still in detention whilst in hospital with 2 Immigration officials at her bedside ready to remove her to Dungavel Detention Centre as soon as she is well. Her two young children are being cared for by social work.

Please come along and show your support for Mireille and for all the families who are reporting.
