Save Darfur links to this BBC story from Friday...
(Also, see the subsequent press release "Police seize Darfur asylum seeker profiled in Aegis report damning Home Office policy", which is indeed about Bakhet Adam Ali.)
Campaigners are urging the Home Office to halt the deportation of failed asylum seekers from the war-ravaged region of Darfur back to Sudan.
Genocide prevention agency the Aegis Trust says deportees risk torture, imprisonment and death if they are returned to the capital, Khartoum.
The Home Office said it would continue to decide each case on its own merits.
Some 445 out of 1,130 Sudanese asylum claims were granted in 2004, and 60 have been returned in 2005 so far.
'Disappearances'
More than two million people have been forced from their homes in a conflict in the western region of Darfur in which at least 180,000 have died.
But hundreds of survivors of the genocide crisis who have fled to Britain are now being threatened with removal to Khartoum, the Aegis Trust says.
The Home Office argues that those fleeing the conflict can safely relocate to the capital and is urging them to do so instead of coming to Britain.
But a locally-based activist, quoted by the trust, says hundreds of refugees who fled Arab militias in Darfur have disappeared.
Hundreds of other Darfur Africans are imprisoned in Khartoum while others face systematic discrimination, particularly if they are suspected of supporting rebels in the troubled region, it adds.
Trust chief executive Dr James Smith said: "Removing Darfuri asylum seekers to Khartoum places them at high risk of imprisonment, torture and possibly death.
"The Home Office should suspend all such removals until the international community provides the protection for Darfur that would enable these people to go home in safety."
Child soldier
The trust published a dossier on the plight of Darfuri asylum seekers as it urged ministers to agree a moratorium on deportations.
The document, Lives in Our Hands, profiles the cases of 26 alleged survivors of the conflict.
One asylum seeker who has had his claim rejected, Bakhet Adam Ali says that when he was a small boy in 1997 many of this family were killed when Arab militia and government forces attacked his village.
The militiamen then tried to force him to become a child soldier and to make him fight the Christians in the south of the country.
"I said I would not go to fight in the south.
"At that time, during the war between the south and north, they used to catch people by force and take them to fight, from Darfur especially.
"Because I refused they tied me to a tree and tortured me. They cut my stomach with a knife and put out their cigarettes on me. They tied me up and their children were cutting me.
"They also left me without food for a long time. I thought I was going to die. Then they went away. Some people passing by on the road saw me and took me to the village and I used the local medicines, until I got better."
Bakhet, who is now 24, eventually fled to Britain through Port Sudan.
Rethink
He has since had his asylum claim refused and was arrested by the police on Friday ahead of probable deportation.
The Home Office would not comment on his case but said each case was decided on its individual merits.
A spokesman said: "We fully recognise the perilous conditions in Sudan for non-Arabs but we will still return people if we do not believe they have a well-founded fear of persecution."
The call comes after Zimbabwe support groups and politicians from three main parties called for a rethink of deportations of failed asylum seekers to Harare.
A hunger strike among Zimbabweans in British detention centres is on-going.
