The British authorities plan to deport a three year old autistic child born in the UK, along with his Tamil parents and siblings who are all suffering mental health problems on the 26th of September 2013.
Lawyers have stressed that the parents are too mentally distressed to support their children who have already been traumatised by earlier attempts to deport them.
The father claimed asylum in the UK under the grounds that he is at risk in Sri Lanka on the grounds that he is a homosexual, had past involvement with Tamil Tiger rebels and taken part in recent human rights protests whilst abroad.
An official letter from the Sri Lanka Human Rights Commission has outlined that there is a Prevention of Terrorism Act arrest warrant in Sri Lanka for him.
The family are booked on Sri Lankan airlines flight UL504.
