After home secretary Priti Patel overcame a high court legal challenge, ‘vulnerable and at risk’ asylum seekers are among those who could be on the first flight to Rwanda this week
Torture victims who have been officially recognised by doctors as “vulnerable and at risk” are being told by the Home Office that they face being deported to Rwanda, the Observer can reveal.
At least one asylum seeker who has been informed by the Home Office they may be on the first flight to the east African country, scheduled to depart this Tuesday, has been assessed as likely to have been a victim of torture.
