WE CALL FOR INTERVENTION IN FRONT OF NOSTOS NGO OFFICES, METSOVOU AND NOTARA STR. MONDAY 6th JULY AT 11:00AM. We will stay there only for half an hour in order to catch up the solidarity gathering to the people that got arrested on Saturday in Victoria Sq. BE ON TIME!
At the begining of June, the family of Hadla Al-Dawas was notified by the Nostos NGO to leave their house. The family consisted of 2 kids, their parents and Hadla Al-Dawas, the grandma: an elderly woman with serious heart health issues. Nostos pressed them to leave, threatened them with future problems with their asylum papers, a forced eviction by the police, and future court cases.
In order to protect their grandma, the family had to answer these demands and she moved into Schistou refuge camp, where another of her sons was living with his family. After 30 hours of being in the camp, she suffered a heart attack and died. The ambulance came to take her body, trying to cover it as much as possible.
After this horrific event, Nostos continued to call the family to remind them that they have to leave the house at the end of June. They added to their threats leaving the house immediately was the only way to be able to apply to Hellios housing "support" program. Nostos knows the family suddenly lost their grandma, they know also the mother of the kids has health issues, they know that the family is not at all in a good condition, but still they keep pressing them to leave the house. Their priority is regulations and finances over human lives.
Nostos is fully responsible for the death of Hadla Al-Dawas. They knew of her health conditions previously, she had been before in the hospital with heart problems. Nostos's humanitarian profile is not confusing anybody. This NGO is just the practical administrators of the misery and criminal migration politics of the State. Nostos are just a thin cover for the death machine of a system which put profits and power over human lives.
We demand Nostos:
- Stop pressing the family and find a permanent solution for their situation.
- Accept their responsibility in this death and respond accordingly towards the family.
- Stop pressing other families in the same situation.
- Stand public and practically against the evictions of asylum seekers and refugees.
Migrants lives matter. States are killing migrant on the borders, in prisons and detention centers, in the camps, and now even inside their own homes.
