UK rejects US based HRW's
cynical claims over deportation of bogus asylum seekers
* UK has questioned concerns raised
by two charities which say that Sri Lankan Tamils deported from the UK are at
danger of being 'tortured' or 'raped'.
* Refutes
pro-LTTE claims stating, "No substantiated allegations of mistreatment of those
returned from the UK".
Britain facilitated deportation of another group of bogus-asylum
seekers to Sri Lanka yesterday (Feb 28). The latest move came amidst constant
spin doctoring and misinformation campaigns carried-out by pro-terrorist front
groups and sympatatic dollar dwellers of the Human Rights Industry.
Human Rights Watch and a proxy terror front group -Freedom from
Torture, clamored that the flights should be suspended because some 'ethnic'
Tamils were subjected to cruel treatment in the island nation.
BBC quoting the British Foreign Office in a news report stated
that, the government only sends people back to Sri Lanka when it and the courts
are satisfied that an individual has no protection needs.
"It cited a ruling from the European Court of Human Rights that
not all Tamil asylum-seekers require protection. And it said there had been no
substantiated allegations of mistreatment of those returned from the UK" BBC
further reported.
Britain has straight forward condemned and refuted the
strongly-worded statements released by the US-based Human Rights Watch and the
British-based Freedom from Torture.
