Belmondo
Wantete
Belmondo Wantete, an electrical engineer from the Congo, has lived in
Ireland with his wife and young children for two and a half years,
and has resident status. Since May 1st 1998 he was subjected to the
most appalling harassment and racism by the gardaí. Belmondo
was vindicated in court on 13th of October, 2000.
Ekundayo
Omoniyi
Ekundayo Joseph Omoniyi was forced to flee from his native Nigeria
because of his opposition to the military regime in that country. His
application for asylum was turned down, he was seized by the
Gardái who attempted to forcibly deport him. He passively
resisted this illegal deportation and as a result is now charged with
assaulting the Gardai. Proceedings against Ekundayo on charges
arising from his appeals case were dropped since late May '00. This
shows how state racism in Ireland can be fought against and defeated.
Congratulations to all of those who worked to support Ekundayo and
highlight his case.
