Campaigners rally for young Afghan targeted by Taliban
An emergency protest was held last night for a man who the Home Office deported to Afghanistan despite his fear of being beheaded by the Taliban.
Samim Bigzad was taken from an immigration detention centre near Gatwick airport and forced onto a plane to Turkey on Tuesday.
Mr Bigzad had said that Taliban militants targeted him because he worked for a construction company that has contracts with the Afghan government and US military.
