Target: The Right Honourable Jacqui Smith M.P., Secretary of State for the Home Department
Region: United Kingdom
Result:
Sadly, the predictable death of Ama Sumani has rendered this petition redundent. However, I should like to sincerely thank all those who took the trouble to sign it and try to correct this barbaric behaviour by the British authorities.
