At 11th hour, Laghman resident allowed to stay in UK (Pajhwok Afghan News) (24 December 2017)

Duncan Lewis, InThePress Solicitors, At 11th hour, Laghman resident allowed to stay in UK (Pajhwok Afghan News)

The Home Office have deferred the removal of an Afghan asylum seeker, client of Jamie Bell, Public Law and Immigration Solicitor at Duncan Lewis. After Jamie Bell issued judicial review proceedings, the Home Office have stayed the removal, which was due to take place on Christmas day. The asylum seeker’s medical report deems his scarring and evidence of injury are consistent with torture, which may be used in order to claim his protection to be provided in the UK. Jamie states: “We believe that our client, a torture survivor, has a strong claim for protection in the UK and are fighting for his right to stay. We now turn our attention to securing his release from detention at IRC Brook House so he can spend the holiday season at liberty.”
