UK Court Rules Hindu-Muslim Couple Separated in Detention May Receive Damages
A Hindu-Muslim couple seeking asylum in the UK due to feared persecution over their interfaith marriage won a legal claim after being separated in detention before deportation to India. The UK High Court ruled their separation breached their right to family life under Article 8 of the European Convention on Human Rights. While their asylum claim was rejected, the court found a serious failure by the Home Office. Damages will be assessed in a lower court.
