Proceeding contribution from Andrew Dismore (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 19 February 2007. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Human Rights.


Human Rights

The hon. Gentleman seems to conflate two different issues, the Chahal case and the Afghan hijackers. Has he read our report dealing with the Afghan hijackers, which makes it clear that the decisions of the court were based on findings of fact—bearing in mind the point that the hon. Gentleman made earlier about not sending people back to be killed—that the hijackers would be targeted for assassination by the Taliban, and also the finding of fact, which was not challenged by the Home Office, that they presented no risk whatever to security in the United Kingdom?
