A gay teenager who sought sanctuary in Britain when his boyfriend was executed in Iran is battling authorities who want to return him to his home country. Mehdi Kazemi, 19, came to London to study English in 2005 but later discovered that his boyfriend had been arrested by the Iranian police, charged with sodomy and hanged. Kazemi was told by his father in Tehran that his boyfriend had been questioned about his sexual relationships before his execution in April 2006 and he'd been named under interrogation. Kazemi claimed asylum in Britain, fearing for his life if he returned to Iran. His case was refused late last year so he fled Britain for the Netherlands where he is now being detained. He appeared before a Dutch court to fight his return to Britain, where he fears authorities will send him back to Iran. This story continues on the link below.
