Home Office must help woman unfairly deported to Uganda to return to UK

High court judge rules that gay asylum seeker who feared persecution in Uganda should have been allowed to remain

The Home Office has been ordered to help a woman deported to Uganda six years ago to return to Britain after a high court judge ruled that the handling of her case was "procedurally unfair".

If the judgment stands, the woman may become the first deportee whose case was processed through fast-track rules operational between 2005 and 2015 to return to the UK and appeal against the decision to deport her.
