UK reviewing deportation order for former Hong Kong politician Wu Chi-wai
Wu Chi-wai, former leader of the now-defunct Democratic Party, arrived at Heathrow Airport last week to reunite with his family after being jailed under China's national security law. Border Force officers stopped him upon arrival, restricted his stay to a week, and seized his passport before his lawyer announced officials are looking at the case again. The interior ministry declined to comment on specific cases while noting its commitment to the local community from Hong Kong.
