Pressure is growing on the Immigration Nationality Directorate to justify their treatment of a Thai born Shetlander who was arrested by immigration officers (Shetland Times, link)

Church of Scotland kirk's presbytery clerk in Lerwick, Reverend Charles Greig, wrote: "I hesitate to use the phrase but I will - this was nothing short of a 'terrorist attack' carried out in a dawn raid. A 'terrorist' is surely one who terrorises - is there any other term for what was done to this unsuspecting young man?"
