Lone children at risk of deportation to Rwanda after being classified as adults, says charity

Refugee Council issues warning after children wrongly issued with notices of intent by Home office

Lone child asylum seekers are at risk of being sent to Rwanda because the Home Office has wrongly classified some as adults, it has been claimed.

The Refugee Council, which works with these children, has warned of the risk after more than a dozen of the children it works with were wrongly issued with notices of intent for Rwanda.
