Died "In Plain Sight" Dehydration, Malnutrition & Hypothermia At Immigration by jara: 11:09pm On Mar 03, 2020
A mentally ill man died from dehydration, malnutrition and hypothermia "in plain sight" at an immigration centre, an inquest found.

Prince Kwabena Fosu's death at 31 was partly due to "gross failure" by agencies at the centre, the jury said.

Mr Fosu was left in an isolation cell for six days without bedding while he suffered from a psychotic illness.

The Home Office said the standard of care had been "unacceptable" and new safeguarding steps had been introduced.

Coroner Chinyere Inyama said that "almost unbelievably" Mr Fosu died "in plain sight" of many people at Harmondsworth Immigration Removal Centre.

Too bad. Could it be that the UK government didnt want to bear the cost of deportation?
