A flight takes off from Heathrow Airport
IMMIGRATION lawyers and campaigners fear that potential victims of torture and trafficking were due to be deported to Vietnam on a charter flight today.
The Morning Star understands that around 20 Vietnamese nationals were scheduled for removal at around 5.30pm from Birmingham on Wednesday on the second charter flight to the country this year.
Several people due to be onboard were removed just days prior, including potential victims of trafficking and sexual abuse, as well as a mother with young children who has been in Britain for over 15 years, campaigners told the Star.
