Grant Charly a Tourist Visa to Attend his Baby Sons Funeral Next Friday.
The Issue
Please can you all help me to get justice for my little boy.
George was born on the 16th October this year. He died an hour after he was born. It was totally unexpected. We still don't know why George died. We might never.
My husband, Charly, due to previous immigration history was prevented from coming to the UK with us for George's birth.
Charly had previously lived within the UK under a false passport, fleeing persecution in his own country, as he had been a journalist there, responsible for writing some anti-government articles.
Charly paid the price for this, serving eight months in prison and a year within a UK detention centre.
We had thought that seeing the circumstances we face he may be granted a tourist visa to bury his son and be with the rest of his young family at this time. We were wrong.
Charly is willing to accept the conditions of any tourist visa granted. Charly is a loving family man, who poses no security risk to the UK. He currently works as a translator.
The Prime Minister and Theresa May have the power to overturn this decision and grant Charly a tourist visa to attend our Son's funeral. We hope that with enough public support, we can convince the Home Office to overturn this decision, given the tragic circumstances.
We are seeking dignity for our son, George, that both his parents be present to bury him. This is not too much to ask.
