A disabled client of Duncan Lewis' Public Law Solicitor Hannah Baynes had her wheelchair taken of her by the immigration authorities whilst on her way to be deported. She then alleges that she was wrapped in a restraint belt reaching from her waist to her breasts, which was then attached to a chain, by which she was dragged around. Lovelyn Edobor is a victim of trafficking from Nigeria who suffers from advanced osteoarthritis in both knees and chronic generalized arthritis. Hannah is quoted: “My client has sever mobility issues, and the way the Home Office official denied her a wheelchair and used a belt and a chain to pull her along when manoeuvring her around the airport is completely deplorable.”
