What the petition asks
Bashir Ahmadzai came to the UK 6 years ago to escape the Taliban. He is profoundly deaf & court documents say he has “complex speech, language & communication difficulties”. He is an extremely vulnerable young person who is under threat of deportation. We ask that he is allowed to remain in the UK.
