Ten years of pending deportation, ten years denial of refugee
protection,
ten years of agony
Enough
is enough!

In 2002 Ali Safianou Touré
came
to Germany. As a political activist he had to flee the immediate
threat by Togos Eyadema-Regime. His application for asylum was
rejected in 2004. The same year the campaign of the Togolese
refugees
against the dictatorship in Togo and its collaboration with
Germany
has begun. Notwithstanding the refusal of asylum by the German
authorities Ali Safianou Touré was one of the most present
activists
in the campaign and still is a determined enemy of the
Eyadema-Regime. When in 2005 the power of the late General was
taken
over by his son through bloody violence, the Togolese refugees
intensified their campaign and sought support for the families
that
were persecuted by the Togolese regime. Ali Safianou Touré is
from
Bafilou, a small town in the north of Togo which was hit hard by
the
regimes repression.
Due to Germanys disastrous
policy - the denial of political asylum - like many Togolese
refugees
Ali Safianou Touré saw himself exposed to the second tracking -
the
threat of deportation to Togo, in effect a delivery to the country
of
persecution.

Ali Safianou Touré never
abandoned his principles against unjust. In Germany he has stood
up
against human rights violations for many years and his
solidarity and
selflessness are known to refugees and non-refugees all over
Germany.
Since last summer his life story is presented in the play
„Asylmonologe“. In many performances the audience had the
opportunity to get to know Ali Safianou Touré in person. Many
asked
for ways to end his agony of the long-unhealthy, unsafe and
humiliating life as a refugee in acquiescence.
Ali
Safianou
Toure is
physically heavily disabled - – Poliomyelitis has left his leg
in a
heavily underdeveloped and deformed state. When
he left Togo, he was able to walk without walking aid. After
several
falls – he has to walk with crutches.
From 2006 on his health
situation
deteriorated steadily. Today, he can travel only short distances
with
crutches, but he often has to take a break. ALI SAFIANOU TOURÉ
hast
o suffer heavy pain for years. High blood pressure and sleeping
disorders are consequences of long life in collective lagers,
limited
social benefits, the limited social welfare through the German
social
welfare Law for asylum seekers and the
unsecured residence and the threat of deportation.
Post-traumatic
stress disorders are massive. Friends
invite him to Hamburg as often as possible and have
bought him an
electric wheelchair to give him back more mobility.
Political
asylum was rejected which is insane, for many years the
decision on
asylum for health/humanitarian reasons has not been taken in
the
council of the Parchim district. A
revisiting request of the case at the Federal Office is pending
since
last year. After intervention of the stage for human rights and
Caravane network at the Federal Office, a early treatment oft
his
case was promised – it is shocking and unacceptable that cases
of
severe health impairment are not beeing treated for years.
Surprisingly the summons came in the case against the
Ludwigslust/Parchim district, where Ali Safianou Touré five
years
ago presented the request to stay for humanitarian reasons.
We
call on you to come to the process and to stand aside Ali
Toure
Safinanou in solidarity.
We call upon
you
to put on a sign that not again a secure residence and the
beginning
of a new life plan shall be stolen from him.
We will not
allow
the german authorities or courts to bring his life in
danger.
Stop the
deportations - end the LAGER-System in Germany!
