Leader of Indian group among those, escorted off the island

Mr Percy Thomas in discussions with the "leader" of the Indian Group at the WallBlake Airport

July 15, 2007:

A handful of Indian Workers, were escorted to the departure lounge of the Wall Blake International Airport shortly after 1:00pm, Sunday July 15.

At least two plain clothed British police officers kept in close proximity to the group in addition to local Immigration officers. Mr. Percy Thomas and Mr. Bankie Banks were also present at the airport to bid farewell.

Included in the departing group was an individual (photo left, red turban) primarily responsible for sharing information with local activists, sparking a series of highly publicized demonstrations over the past weeks.

Reliable sources informed www.anguillanews.com that the individual was a social worker from India who had embedded himself in the group.  Unconfirmed information from the same sources indicate that he was asked to leave based on a medical report issued by a local doctor.

All actions are believed to have been taken subsequent to the strike activities.
