Asylum People with refused claims can be sent to Rwanda
The Guardian|May 16, 2024
Tens of thousands of people who have been refused asylum in the UK have been added to the group of people at risk of being forcibly removed to Rwanda, according to the Home Office, which said that the UK and Rwandan governments had agreed a deal to widen the cohort of those eligible to be sent to the east African country.

Asylum People with refused claims can be sent to Rwanda

Lawyers have condemned the development and say it will drive asylum seekers underground. 

The Home Office confirmed that some refused asylum seekers had already been contacted by immigration enforcement officers and detained in preparation for removal to Rwanda in the next "seven to nine weeks" as part of Operation Vector.

They will not have their asylum claims processed in Rwanda but will be granted residency and receive the same five-year support package as those whose asylum claims will be processed there.

According to government data, in 2023 there were 24,310 refusals of asylum claims and 24,027 withdrawals. Both groups are now at risk of being forcibly relocated.
