Campsfield detainees end hunger strike

The hunger strikers in Campsfield House ended their Hunger strike on Sunday, 17 August, following a visits from International Federation of Iraqi Refugees (IFIR) representatives Dashty Jamal and Aso Goran. The Iraqi asylum seekers started the hunger strike on Saturday 9 August demanding an end to forcible deportations to Iraq and the release of all Iraqi Kurdish asylum seekers from detention. However, they are ending the hunger strike before any one suffers ill effects from the hunger strike.
