Protest march over flat deaths

Campaigners will stage a march and rally following the deaths of three asylum seekers who leapt from a tower block.

It is understood the group, named by local welfare organisations as Serguei Serykh, his wife Tatiana and his stepson, had been living in the Red Road flats in Springburn for a short time after arriving from Canada.

The UK Border Agency said it had advised the Russian family that arrangements were being made to return them to the country where they had previously been granted protection.
