Immigration Detention A Case Of Overuse

Whilst the world finds itself in the midst of a global pandemic, uncertainty has grown and impacted lives around the world. No doubt stress levels are at their peak amongst many individuals. The results of the lockdown are being witnessed by us all in the form of loss of lives, increasing crime rates, growing mental illness and a financial hit to the world economy at large. We are quick to jump to social media and express our deepest sympathy from behind a keyboard to all those suffering from these unfortunate circumstances and offering our support by sharing posts, protesting and getting involved with anything else which society or social media choose to focus on.

When lockdown was imposed in the UK, the authorities were very quick to recognise the impact this may have had on certain groups such assmall businesses, young children, domestic abuse victims and generally people who suffer from mental health issues. This this was important and rightly done. However, the authorities forgot about other important groups who were also in a high bracket category of suffering due to the pandemic. The authorities failed to recognise how badly and abruptly they ignored immigrants in the UK

This article will discuss the difficult life of immigrants, particularly focussing on asylum seekers and the traumatic conditions, which they face even after arriving in the UK. The horrors they overcome to get to the UK, which may be further exacerbated by how we, as a society treat them.

On 26 June 2020 an incident unfolded on our screens focussing on the Park Inn Hotel in Glasgow, which left the people shocked, distressed and worried when a man named Bedreddin Abadalla, a Sudanese Asylum Seeker carried out a knife attack. The police were quick to act and rightfully too. They acted in the best interest of the public and the people stranded within the hotel, leaving the attacker to be killed by one of the police officers after he injured six other people. However, could this unfortunate event have been avoided in the first place and the entire event be prevented? The answer in short, YES!

An individual had already warned the staff about the attacker and his deteriorating mental health state. These concerns were not only about the attacker but also the lives of others within the building. Unfortunately, these concerns were not taken seriously by staff or the Home Office and were ignored entirely. To date we know nothing about the staff who were on site or responsible for the welfare of these individuals. Were staff trained immigration officers or did they simply consist of employees of the Park Inn Hotel? Were staff responsible for “guarding” the asylum seekers or were they responsible for the operation of the hotel in general? Were they operating the building as a hotel or a detention centre? Who was responsible of looking after their welfare? Unfortunately, these aspects were never explored or disclosed by the news.

The truth is that while the whole country was told to lockdown and stay in their homes, asylum seekers were plucked from their individual residences and forced to move into different hotels, throughout the country as accommodation during lockdown. However, asylum seekers were treated like detainees as many have reported. They were locked in hotel rooms with no access to phones and were given no other communication means. Hotel windows did not open so there was no fresh air. Food was provided in shared halls and was very limited, leaving people to starve. Images of the basic food offered by the hotel made one question if it was even edible!

UK has many prisons where people are convicted with serious crimes such as murders and rapes. Despite the seriousness of their offences, these prisoners are treated and fed better in prison in comparison to the way the asylum seekers have been treated recently. This raises serious questions about the degrading treatment towards asylum seekers, who are not a risk to the public and are in this country as they fear their life. The real question is why were they not allowed to freely walk the halls of the hotel and be provided with decent meals? Why were they not allowed to leave the premises for their daily walk like the rest of the country? And why were innocent lives treated like detainees? To date no answers have been provided for these questions which are occurring constantly.

It was ironic how quickly some people jumped to social media and sarcastically made uninformed comments. Some spoke out saying asylum seekers ought to be grateful that they were provided with “five-star accommodation, three luxury meals per day and free room service”. However, when news reports came out showing the reality of the matter and how dreadfully these immigrants and families had been treated the country suddenly went quiet. Murmurs of distaste, and rumours of an enquiry to investigate started, and then fell to the wayside

Under no law or regulation were the Home Office in the right to treat these people worse than convicted criminals in a prison. It is difficult to admit when one is wrong but why was it so difficult for the public to stand up for these innocent people just like they did for every other person who was suffering? The reality is that it is not just the authorities, but the public at large and society itself who also think it is okay for asylum seekers to be treated not just differently but indifferently

As the news circulated and people were becoming increasingly aware of reality faced by these innocent souls, more detailed information was coming forward. On 11 May 2020, the Guardian newspaper reported that a Syrian man committed suicide during lockdown, and this was a direct result of how he was being treated. It was the final straw, and this broke him. What he went through in war torn Syria did not kill him. The loss of his family, his home and everything he knew he somehow managed to survive. However, how the UK authorities treated him, broke him. He could not go on. Was the trauma suffered in the UK greater than the sounds of bombs and fear of being killed any second?

Many asylum seekers were given only a few hours’ notice and forced to pack belongings and be shifted to hotels during the lockdown. They were forced to stay in their rooms for months and the mental health impact caused by this was never even considered. The reality is that the authorities are unable to assess what trauma was already there and what trauma was then further exacerbated by their own actions because they have failed to assess and treat asylum seekers for psychological trauma like they have for the rest of the people suffering in the country. Additionally, Syrian refugees get automatic humanitarian protection so under what rule or regulation were they treating them like detainees as some have suggested. It seems that this is a form of control and again authorities have failed to recognise this or give the appropriate support. In addition to the above, newspapers also reported an incident of a man named Mumtaz Khan who had fought in the UK for four years before he was found dead. Mr Mumtaz had reported to his solicitor that he was facing a great deal of stress and did not have an appetite. Leaving Afghanistan 11 years ago prior coming to the UK in 2016, he left behind a wife and two young children. This being one of the most difficult decisions for Mr Khan. However, after coming to the UK living a life of uncertainty with lack of support, only created further trauma. Mr Khan was found by a friend who had only left to get him some food after learning he had had not ate all day. In 2017, Mr Khan’s Consultant Psychiatrist had wrote a supporting letter to the Home Office requesting that his application be fast tracked on the ground that he was suffering from major depression and that his condition can be improved if he is given permission to work. Giving someone independence and a purpose in life can make a huge difference. Many asylum seekers are just desperate to work and do not want to be a burden to society. They have a strong work ethic and it makes a huge difference to personal confidence and morale. Despite this, Mr Khan did not get a decision from the Home Office until some 15 months later, a decision not in his favour.

To conclude, the world has faced a pandemic where no one knows and understands how to control this. Our politicians have failed to provide decisions in the best interest of the people. However, despite this, local authorities have done their best to support people who are suffering, Certain authorities have chosen groups of people they can help but at the same time ignored other groups within the same category. It is evident that asylum seekers in the UK are continuing to be treated secondary to the rest of the community. Voices have been raised in the past, but no improvement has been made to overcome the suicide rate and the suffering of mental illness of asylum seekers. Coventry Hill Hotel in Birmingham is another example, where refugees have been given accommodation. Many people spoke of their ill treatment and confusion of why they are forced to live in such premises and treated like detainees. Some complained of losing friends, who were taken by immigration officers to detention centres to be removed to other countries without any chance for legal representation. Again, causing a state of fear and alarm for the remaining refugees, of what waits for them. A very recent article by ITV news explained how 400 migrant children were taken into council’s care so far this year. The article explores at how the UK are struggling to cope with the increasing number of refugees entering the country each year. Given, the recent situation, these figures have drastically increased. The article further explores, the lack of commitment the government is willing to put in controlling refugees who cross the Chanel. Suggestions were made to include the Navy to assist in exploring this issue, but it is apparent that: “border force is the Home Office’s own navy”, which clearly is unable to cope. Overall, the authorities focus has been everything about refugees with the exception, of their mental well-being, their legal rights, moral rights, dignity and everything else which does not just add them as a number to the refugee register so that the authorities can tick a box.

At LKW Solicitors, our experienced family law solicitors have a wealth of experience in helping clients with any issues concerning grandparents’ rights and parental responsibility agreements. We understand how difficult it can be to negotiate these matters and we are here to provide the advice, support and guidance you need throughout the process. 

Grandparent rights refer to a grandparent's legal right to access their grandchildren either through contact or visitation rights. In Scotland there is no automatic right for a grandparent to be able to see their grandchildren, so if you are trying to get access it is important that you seek legal advice as soon as possible. 

When parents separate, the issue of parental responsibility arises. This refers to the rights and responsibilities that parents have over their child as well as who makes decisions on behalf of them. It can include aspects such as medical care or religious upbringing. In some circumstances, grandparents may also acquire parental responsibility if they have been granted contact rights with their grandchildren. 

At LKW Solicitors we understand how important it is for families to be able to maintain relationships – even when parents separate or divorce - and we strive to help our clients achieve this outcome whenever possible. Our experienced lawyers will work closely with you throughout your case, taking into account your individual circumstances in order to provide effective advice tailored specifically for you and your family’s needs.

At LKW Solicitors, our priority is providing first-class legal advice and support for our clients. Our team of experienced family law solicitors are here to help you navigate the complex legal system surrounding domestic abuse and protection orders.

What Are Domestic Abuse & Protection Orders?  

Domestic abuse is an umbrella term for any form of controlling, coercive or violent behaviour within the home between partners or family members. This can include physical, verbal, psychological and sexual abuse as well as economic control.  

An interdict or non-harassment order is a legally binding order from a court to protect people from any further harm caused by an abuser. It usually includes various restrictions on the abuser's behaviour such as limiting their contact with the protected person or restricting them from entering certain areas. It is possible to apply for a protection order if you have been a victim of any kind of domestic abuse or harassment. 

An interdict is similar to a non-harassment order but applies more generally rather than specifically to one individual or group. It could involve effective boundaries being put in place around property to stop people entering it without permission, or it could be used instead of an injunction if there has been no physical contact between two people but one person feels threatened or intimidated by another individual’s conduct towards them. 

Restricting Occupancy Rights: What are they?

An order restricting occupancy rights can prevent someone who owns or has a right to live in a property from being there. This will prevent someone who is abusive from living at the property even if they  are the owner. It would also protect anyone else who has lived at the property before they left due to fear of harm (known as ‘permitted occupier’).  

Non-harassment orders are used when someone feels harassed, alarmed or distressed by another person’s conduct towards them – even if that person has never threatened violence against them directly. The order will prevent any further contact between two people (in person, via text messages etc.).  

 By working closely with our clients throughout their cases, our family law solicitors can provide expert advice on how best to handle difficult situations involving domestic abuse and protection orders. We aim to make sure that our clients feel supported throughout every step of their case; ensuring that their rights are protected under relevant laws and regulations in Scotland.

What Are Child Custody or Contact Disputes? 

A Child Custody or Contact dispute arises when parents disagree on the arrangements for their children’s care. This includes decisions about where the children should live, who should have parental responsibility for them and how much contact each parent should have with them. The court may be asked to intervene if both parties are unable to come to an agreement. 

Our experienced family law solicitors can give you advice on what actions you may wish to take in order to resolve any disputes that arise in relation to arrangements concerning your children. We will work closely with both parties involved, making sure that all relevant factors are taken into account before providing a strategy tailored specifically for your individual circumstances. 

Under Scots Law, both parents have equal rights and responsibility for their children until either party obtains a court order granting one person sole parental responsibility or shared parental responsibility between both parties. Parents also have an obligation towards their child financially; this includes providing food, clothing and shelter as well as paying maintenance costs such as nursery fees or school trips where applicable. 

The court will consider several factors when determining a child contact or custody arrangement including; understanding child/children, which parent has had primary residence during the relationship breakdown and any special needs of either of the parties involved or their children. Our solicitors can advise on what rights each parent has under current legislation and how best these rights can be exercised within the confines of family law legislation.

When it comes to these areas of family law there are numerous considerations which must be taken into account including assets, debts, pensions and other investments which need to be discussed prior to any arrangement being made legally binding.

Financial Support Matters, Civil Partnership & Marriage Dissolution

Are you looking for an experienced and reliable family law solicitor to help you with financial support matters or civil partnership dissolution? Look no further than lkw solicitors, who offer comprehensive legal services for these issues. With our team of dedicated professionals, we can provide you with the best advice and guidance throughout your case.

We understand that entering into a Prenuptial or Cohabitation Agreement or negotiating and signing a Separation Agreement is a big step, so at LKW Solicitors our experienced family law solicitors can help you navigate the complex legal process. 

At LKW Solicitors, we focus on helping couples who are entering into prenuptial, cohabitation agreements or negotiating matters for a Separation Agreement to ensure that their arrangements are legally binding and robust. They may relate to protecting pre-marital assets or financial matters and/or simply cover carefully negotiated care arrangements for children.  Our experienced solicitor will provide clear, jargon-free advice on the law applicable to your circumstances and ensure that all issues affecting your rights and obligations are considered. 

A prenuptial agreement sets out what should happen to assets in the event of separation or death. It gives each party a clear understanding of the assets held by each at the time of marriage and how assets acquired during the marriage will be divided upon separation or death. This can save significant time and costs during any subsequent proceedings. 

Cohabitation agreements provide similar protection for unmarried couples living together, setting out what should happen if they decide to end their relationship or one partner dies. This provides clarity over who owns what property and assets, as well as giving both parties peace of mind about their respective financial security. 

 How Can A Prenuptial Agreement Or Cohabitation Agreement Be Enforced? 

Prenuptial agreements and cohabitation agreements are legally binding documents that are written according to specific guidelines in order for them to be enforceable by Scottish courts should there be a dispute between parties later down the line. However, no matter how well crafted an agreement may be, it must meet certain criteria set out by Scots law in order for it to be enforced if challenged in court. At LKW solicitors, our professional team is highly knowledgeable about these criteria meaning that when drawing up or negotiating such documents on behalf of clients we fully understand what will make them legally binding should they ever need enforced in court at any time in the future.
