| Former UK head of coalition forces in Afghanistan: It would be a ‘travesty’ to deport hero pilot |

| [Independent] Kicking the Afghan fighter pilot out of the UK would be so ’contrary to British instincts’, says General Lord David Richards. The British former commander of coalition forces in Afghanistan is urging the government to show "solidarity and friendship" towards an Afghan pilot being threatened with deportation to Rwanda. Backing The Independent’s campaign, General Lord David Richards of Herstmonceux said it would be a "travesty of justice" if the airman, who arrived in the UK via small boat, was to be kicked out. |
