Court awards £17,000 to detained illegal immigrant

Quote:
An illegal immigrant has been awarded £17,360 at the High Court for being wrongly imprisoned.
Joseph Mjemer, who arrived in the UK as a stowaway in 2003, was held by Home Office officials as they tried to establish his country of origin.
Judge Stephen Stewart QC concluded he should be freed and paid damages by the Home Office for loss of liberty.
Mr Mjemer, 28, was convicted of more than 20 offences in the three years following his arrival in Britain.
