Bringing back Lisa Smith from Syria ‘can be surmounted’

The Government should not find it too difficult to meet its responsibility in facilitating the return of former Air Corps corporal Lisa Smith and her child from Syria, UN special rapporteur Fionnuala Ní Aoláin has said.
Prof Ní Aoláin, who is UN special rapporteur on the Promotion and Protection of Human Rights while Countering Terrorism, also said her office is “deeply concerned” at the arrest of WikiLeaks co-founder Julian Assange in London.
