ASYLUM SEEKERS SENT BACK

-

RWANDA expects the first group of 50 asylum seekers to be transferre­d from the UK by the end of May, a government spokespers­on said yesterday. In April the British government announced plans to send people seeking asylum to the East African country, but said it expected lawyers to lodge claims to prevent their removal. “It is the British government that knows how many will come and when they will come,” said Rwanda’s deputy government spokespers­on, Alain Mukurarind­a. |
