Sree in Britain illegally?
Housemate 'allowed to see lawyers'
sree-in-britain-illegally

The Sun has claimed that Sree held ‘crisis talks’ with lawyers yesterday after bosses learnt he could be in the UK illegally.

According to the paper, Sree, who is originally from India, requested an extension on his student visa in January, but Big Brother producers learnt earlier this week that his application had been rejected.

He was apparently allowed to see a solicitor in the house yesterday — the ‘first time’ that a visitor has been allowed on set — to sign forms appealing the decision.

If his appeal is successful he will be granted another three months in the UK, but if it isn’t he will be sent back to India.

A spokeswoman ‘confirmed’: “Sree has had private meetings with an immigration lawyer within the house.”

Is this story correct? Could Sree have to be pulled out early?

i don’t like sree, don’t forget this is The Sun we are talking about

Steve’Lee says: June 20, 2009 @ 2:26 pm

True Frankie, but surely they could get in trouble for ‘making’ this up?

If any of this is true it raises several issues/observations in my mind :-

1) Why was his application rejected ? Havent heard of many cases a student Visa extension is rejected unless they have done something wrong thats come to the attention of the authorities. Thus the production crew as a result propbably thought extension was a formality.

2) Why has it taken 5 Months + to come to this decision ? I presonally doubt it was end of January the extension was applied for.

3) Another example of production crew making their lives more difficult than needs be in IMHO. Why pick Housemates that arent British Subjects and thus leave themselves open to these problems ?

Oh no Steve’Lee. The Press Complaints Commission are basically toothless.

I can’t say too much but I pursued an issue we bought up here previously with the PCC and it’s now close to being resolved - but the power is clearly all with the papers, and not with the regulators.

If Sree is in the country on a student visa only,why is he in the house thats not being a student. Send him back anyway hes gettin on my nerves stalking noirin all the time gives me the creaps.

Scree is brill, keep him in and leave him alone, I wanted Cairon out because he wasn’t entertaining, he was moody, aggressive and boring, Scree might be a pain but you must admit there’s never a dull moment when he’s around.

@sandra
If they are here on Student Visas they are usually allowed to work part time and in the holidays but it does vary I believe. Its also debatable if this is work as such been a contestant.

As I posted before I think a bigger issue is why did they refuse this extension in first place ? Its very unusual from what Ive seen unless they have done something wrong that authoriites have found out about.

mia says: June 22, 2009 @ 2:41 pm
