The Bombay High Court has ordered immigration authorities to respond to a petition by an Ethiopian woman fearing persecution if deported. The woman claims she and her family face death threats in Ethiopia or Somalia due to tribal ostracization and minority clan status. While she possesses a UNHCR refugee card valid until 2027, authorities state this is insufficient without a valid passport and visa, which expired in 2021. Deportation proceedings are ongoing, with officials seeking travel documents.
