Shiromini Satkunarajah

Professor John G Hughes, Vice-Chancellor, said: “Bangor University has welcomed the news of Shiromini Satkunarajah’s release last night. We would particularly like to thank Hywel Williams MP who has worked tirelessly to secure her release as well as the Students’ Union at Bangor University and NUS Wales and students, staff, local media and many others around the world who lent their support.

“We will continue to support Shiromini on her return to the University, and very much hope that she will be allowed to remain to complete her degree.”
