Details under Afghan Citizens Resettlement Scheme have been passed to member of the public
An Afghan teacher who has been in hiding with his wife and two children since the Taliban takeover last August has been told by the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office that his personal details have been passed on to a member of the public “in error”.
The data breach is the first known leak under the government’s Afghan Citizens Resettlement Scheme, which prioritises those who have assisted UK efforts in Afghanistan and vulnerable people, including members of minority groups.
