Home Office Act Contrary To High Court Injunction
Updated by Gherson and Co on Sunday 13 August 2006. All Articles | Asylum | Human Rights
The Home Office has accepted that it acted against the orders of a High Court judge in removing a Turkish family to Germany.
The family's legal representatives had successfully applied to the High Court for an injunction prohibiting the Home Office from removing the family from the UK. The director of the Immigration & Nationality Directorate's enforcement and removal service, David Roberts, appeared in person in court to apologise for the actions of his department and blamed the removal of the family on 'regrettable failings'.
The Home Office are organising the return of the family to the UK.
