Every day I ask myself, 'Why am I here?' (Karamjit Singh Chahal, facing allegations concering terrorist offences)(Interview)
Article Abstract:
Karamjit Singh Chahal has been in Bedford prison since 1990, having been arrested pending deportation to India for reasons of national security. He has never been charged with any offence, and knows only that there are serious allegations against him concerning unspecified terrorist offences. He believes that he should be brought to court to answer any allegations, but the UK government is still keen to deport him to India, where his life may be at risk. He has now lost his right to remain in the UK, where he has lived for many years.

The fantasist that time forgot
Article Abstract:
Author Edward Upward is the last surviving member of the 'Auden Group' of writers who were extremely influential in the 1930s, but has received very little media attention in recent years. He has accepted that his friends of that era, who included Christopher Isherwood and Louis MacNeice, will always be seen as more talented than him, although he showed considerable early promise. He has always found writing a struggle, but is still working on a memoir of his friendship with Christopher Isherwood.

Fighting Benazir - by fax from Mill Hill
Article Abstract:
Altaf Hussain, the leader of the Mohajir Quami Movement (MQM), the largest ethnic party in Pakistan, faces more than 100 criminal charges in Pakistan. He is currently living in London, from where he controls the everyday activities of his party. There is currently no extradition treaty between the UK and Pakistan, so he is unlikely to be deported to face the charges. He is one of a growing number of foreign dissidents living in London.
