Commissioner o f U.N.H.C.R.

Geneva, Switzerland

 

Dear Mr. R. Luberrs

Two Iranian refugees, Mister  Ebrahim Khodabandeh and Jamil Basamwho, two political activists who  had British passports illegally were detained by Syrian authorities and handed over to the Iranian regime in Tehran.

The return of those refugees is a violation of the Geneva Convention (ARTICLE 33).

With the systematic violation of human right abuses in Iran and the fact that they behave inhumanly with political opponents and dissidents which has been condemned several times by the U.N.

We, Human right centers in Europe and Canada, request you to act immediately for the release of the two detainees and their safe return to Britain.

The Syrian regime and Iranian regime are responsible for the safety of Mr. Khodabandeh and Basam.

 

Regards,
