We are friends and colleagues of Hicham Yezza, amongst the thousands of Nottingham University students and staff who have expressed our support for his case, have marched together against his deportation and who continue to fight against his persecution.

Some of us have known him for less than ten weeks, others for more than ten years, but we all have come to appreciate him for the kind, gifted, generous and unique individual he is.

His substantial contributions to our student and local community (whether as an activist, an intellectual, an artist or just a great human being) have been immense and deserve to be recognized and acknowledged.

Our aim is to raise awareness of his current plight and to help him fight his case. Our support for Hich is shared by the majority of Nottingham University members and we hope to succeed in ensuring the University of Nottingham authorities reflect this in their actions and public stances.

We have also gained support from tens of thousands of people from around the globe, including academics, artists, politicians, MPs, activists, community leaders and concerned citizens in the UK and beyond.

We urge you to join us and lend Hich your support.
