People being held inside Harmondsworth immigration centre have been left terrified, claiming they’ve been 'abandoned' by staff and officers as they enter their second day without running water or electricity.
Riot police descended on the detention centre shortly before 8pm last night amid a number of reports about a protest or major disturbance including claims of detainees being armed.
There were no arrests or injuries but Met Police remained at the scene this morning and pictures showed a heavy police presence at the centre, near Heathrow Airport.
