According to Pink News, Italy is ready to grant asylum to Iranian Pegah Emambakhsh:
A spokesperson for Italian government has confirmed that they will grant ayslum to a lesbian woman due to be deported from the UK to Iran.
Pegah Emambakhsh is currently being detained by British officials and she is scheduled for repatriation on Tuesday.
Her sexual orientation and her past life in Iran may lead to her being executed.
Even if she is not sentenced to death, she is likely to be prosecuted and tortured by Iran’s religious officials.
Maybe that will shame the Home Office into reconsidering.
