Lodi is a Lebanese citizen born and raised in Saudi Arabia, two Middle Eastern countries that advocate the death penalty for homosexuality. Lodi is currently in the UK and has applied for refugee status; she is currently classified as an Asylum Seeker.

Her fiancé lives in England and they have been together for 5 years. 

Now, the UKBA is threatening to send Lodi back to Lebanon, where she may die for being a lesbian engaged to another woman. 

As an appeal to the UKBA, King's College LGBT Society are setting up a petition to get as many signatures as possible before the 26th March, 2013, to show that Lodi has mass support and interest from UK Citizens. 

We need the UKBA to see that Lodi deserves a life as an open and free citizen in the UK, as opposed to a life overshadowed by the death penalty in Lebanon.
