Control with compassion: how to defend the refugee convention

Sabir Zazai remembers how he first heard about the refugee convention. He was given an official letter, after arriving in Dover in the back of a lorry during the cold December of 1999. It told him that he was now ‘a person liable to be detained’, having arrived without permission, but that he could make his application for asylum under the 1951 refugee convention.

Zazai recalls a kind woman giving him some fish and chips – and reflected, more recently, that there were no balaclava-clad men roaming around the port that day. Zazai was sent to Coventry, while his asylum claim was deemed well founded. He now displays the letter given to his 22-year-old self, alongside a more recent missive in which Her Majesty’s Government awarded him an OBE for his civic contribution in the decades since. Zazai leads the Scottish Refugee Council today, and was speaking at last week’s opening of a UNHCR UK dialogue event, reflecting on the 75th anniversary of the refugee convention.
