An Alliance candidate has had to withdraw from May's council election due to an "issue with paperwork" affecting her eligibility, the party has said.
Mimi Unamoyo, who was standing in the Balmoral area of South Belfast, had aimed to become the first refugee elected as a councillor in Northern Ireland.
The Alliance Party said Ms Unamoyo being unable to run for election was "another example of the barriers facing members of migrant communities".
