RACISM: UK Government wrongfully label a Black British Non-verbal (Deaf & Dumb) teenage citizen a Nigerian, detained at Gatwick Immigration centre for deportation …Mother expressed outrage, asked why her 17-year-old disabled son was found at an immigration detention centre after going missing during treatment for psychosis *Boy sectioned under the Mental Health Act on 7 April, arrested 48 hours later by British Transport Police at Euston on suspicion of fare evasion *After teenager’s return to hospital, clothes contained Home Office documents incorrectly records name, date of birth, and nationality as Nigerian due to color of skin *“It’s just horrific. Just because my son is black they (Immigration Enforcement officers) assumed let’s pick him and put him in a deportation centre. How do they know he’s from Nigeria, when he couldn’t even speak? Must every black British citizen be black? My boy is a British citizen and has never left the UK once. He would not have been able to say his date of birth, would never have said he was from Nigeria due to mental disability”-Mother *“Unaccompanied minors or children under the age of 18 should not be in detention in the first place. In theory detention should be an absolute last resort, rather than an early step you would go to. We will certainly investigate this matter”-James Wilson, deputy director of Detention Action *BY GEORGE ELIJAH OTUMU/AMERICAN Senior Investigative Editor & EMMANUELLA SAM/IMMIGRATION Reporter, London
