Human rights organisations have told Polish Radio that the possible deportation of a Mongolian family from Poland, in the country for eleven years, would be cruel and inhumane and against the European human rights charter. “In Mongolia they have nobody and nothing,” Karolina Rosilowicz, a lawyer from the Helsinki Foundation told Polish Radio.
Khash Batdavaa recently had to take his university exams in the company of a border guard after his family failed to legalize their stay in Poland. The Batdavaa family is currently staying in a detention centre in the south east of the country. Their fate is in the hands of the courts, which are to decide whether they will be sent back to Mongolia, a country the younger members of the family have never been to, or allowed to return to their home in Krakow.
