STOCKHOLM (PIC)– A group of Palestinian refugees in Sweden have been rallying outside of Malmo’s department of refugee affairs for the fourth week running to demand permanent asylum.
The Palestinian sit-inners have been identified as refugees who have joined their parents across the European continent after they were displaced from Iraq in the wake of the 2003 war.
The protesters said they have been taking refuge in Sweden for more than four years and that their number does not exceed 320.
The rally-goers maintaining vigil in Sweden’s southern city of Malmo launched distress signals over the agony and harsh conditions they have been made to endure ever since they were deported from Iraq.
