A vulnerable Afghan asylum seeker who was caught up in the Knowsley anti-migrant disturbances in February won a victory in the high court on Wednesday after a judge ordered that the Home Office must urgently move him out of his hotel, which was targeted by protesters, to a safer place.
It is thought to be the first case of its kind where the Home Office has been ordered to move an asylum seeker due to their deteriorating mental health triggered by anti-migrant activity.
