| Subject: UK immigration detention centers probed by Home Office after abuse revelations Tue Feb 10, 2015 12:06 am | |
| British Home Secretary Theresa May is to launch a review into the treatment and welfare of detainees held in immigration removal centers, the Home Office announced on Monday. The review will look into how well detainees are treated in these centers, and will be led by the former Prisons and Probation Ombudsman for England and Wales, Stephen Shaw CBE. The review comes after a string of complaints made by activists and detainees regarding the treatment of some of the UK’s immigration removal centers, which include allegations of violence and sexual abuse. “Immigration detention is a vital tool in helping ensure those with no right to remain in the UK are returned to their home country,” said Home Secretary Theresa May. “But I take the welfare of those in the government’s care very seriously and I want to ensure the health and wellbeing of all detainees, some of whom may be vulnerable, is safeguarded at all times.”
