Target: Home Secretary Rt Hon Alan Johnson MP
Background (Preamble):
Behnam, an outstanding young artist, who is a BA Hons Fine Art student at Central Saint Martins College of Art & Design, University of the Arts London, his younger brother, a gap year student, both former students at Quintin Kynaston School, and their mother, are in urgent need of asylum in the UK.
Petition:
The family claimed asylum in the UK, but their claim was rejected. It again failed on appeal and this was upheld at a reconsideration hearing. Shortly after receiving this news the boys' mother collapsed and was taken to hospital.

This has happened on a number of occasions since this situation arose and is clearly related to deep fears.
