Hi crime was washing dishing: the penalty was death
“Frank Ospina, 39, a Colombian engineering graduate, came to the UK in late 2022 to visit his mother, who had settled here, and to visit prospective universities.
Having decided to instead enrol on a master’s course in Spain, which was due to begin in May, his family say he took a short-term job washing dishes. But as a foreign national Frank did not have the right to work in the UK.”
So, contrary to the headline, he wasn’t am migrant, he was a visitor, waiting to move on somewhere else. They locked him up, they wouldn’t let him leave, they let him kill himself. The whole article is heart wrenching.
