'Reliving the nightmares over again'

Available for over a year

More than twenty organisations from across Northern Ireland who work with refugees have written to the Home Secretary calling on her to reverse a policy which they say is "beyond basic morality". Five years after someone had been given refugee status they could apply for permanent residency - but now they must undergo a 'safe return' review to see if they can be sent back home. Campaigners claim the new measures would "put an end to hope of stability for refugees and end any possibility of them being able to integrate into society". Our reporter Peter Coulter has been speaking to Makhosi, a Zimbabwean refugee in Belfast. He now faces the prospect of having his case reviewed.
