The Appeal

In a summer when the immigration row has simmered in Parliament, and erupted in Southall, Inside Story concentrates on one very typical, human tale of an immigrant named MOHAMMED AKRAM. Mohammed Akram , a British citizen born in Pakistan, faces a tribunal which will decide simply whether the woman he says is his wife is his wife, and whether the baby he says is his daughter, is his daughter. On the outcome depends his whole happiness.

The tribunal has been set up under one of the Immigration Acts designed to halt the flow of immigrants to these islands, and Mohammed Akram is one digit in the hotly-disputed immigration statistics, behind which lurk adjudications that would have taxed Solomon in all his wisdom, and behind which lie an unheard catalogue of anguish and despair.
