Child migrants to be sent back to hotel where 136 vanished

A Brighton hotel where unaccompanied young people seeking asylum disappeared is to be brought back into use by the Home Office

A notorious Brighton hotel from where scores of children were kidnapped is to be reopened by the Home Office to house unaccompanied youngsters again, leaked internal memos reveal.

The Home Office was forced to empty a string of hotels for unaccompanied children after the Observer revealed that huge numbers were going missing, with many having been abducted by criminal gangs.
