Petition No extradition of UK citizens to South Africa
More details
We call upon the UK Government to stop all extradition requests to South Africa.
South Africa has an appalling record with regard to human rights issues.
We believe that no UK citizen should be extradited to South Africa, especially without presenting prima facie evidence.
Until South Africa are able to uphold their commitment to the ECHR and bring an end to the corruption within the SAPS, we ask that no extradition requests are entertained by the UK Government from South Africa.
We also request that in light of the poor human rights record held by South Africa, that special consideration is given to any UK citizen who’s extradition may be sought by South Africa, to protect the citizen and their Human Rights and that this consideration should over ride any extradition request.
