A MAN has been detained without warning and is facing deportation to a country where he has no known family or friends.
Joseph “Joey” Bediako was taken into detention by the Home Office at Brook House immigration removal centre near Gatwick Airport on 5 May. The 26-year-old has been threatened with deportation to Ghana despite only having no known relatives or home in the country and through only possessing a Ghanaian passport, his girlfriend Amoura Curry has alleged.
His girlfriend , a 22 year old Londoner said that Joey had received a letter telling him to apply for EU Settlement Scheme (EUSS). He is eligible to apply for the scheme as both his parents are Italian nationals, his father has lived and worked in the UK since 2016 and Joey has allegedly been living in the UK for the last four years.
