An Afghan interpreter who risked his life serving alongside the British army was deported back to Afghanistan from Pakistan after the UK wrongly refused to grant him sanctuary.
The interpreter was told twice that he would not be able to come to the UK, despite being described by a Ministry of Defence police officer as an “enthusiastic supporter of the UK mission in Afghanistan” and putting his life “in grave danger, almost every day” during his time working in Helmand province for the British.
