On 21/08/12 Amnesty released a statement condemning the threat of eviction hanging over around 40 African sans-papiers living in a squat in Calais. According to the statement, if the migrants “are forcibly evicted, they would be left homeless and at risk of facing other human rights violations, and of being placed in detention, if they are found not to have regular immigration status, or being forcibly returned to their home country.” You can read the full statement in English here.
