A Hindu family facing deportation to Afghanistan say they fear religious persecution by the Taliban if they are forced to return.
Arti Kumar says she fled the country in September 2007 with her two sons, Akash and Ravi, because they had been targeted by the Taliban.
Ms Kumar claimed asylum upon arrival in the UK and was moved to Middlesbrough.
She has now been told by the UK Border Agency that they do not have the right to remain here and must go back.
She says: "I'd rather die here than go back and be killed. I've got nothing to go back for or to."
