§ Mr. Roseasked the Secretary of State for the Home Department why he has caused Mr. Grewal to be detained at Risley Remand Centre a fortnight after his arrival at Manchester Airport; and whether he will allow him to stay with his relatives for a limited period of three weeks.
§ Mr. Merlyn ReesMr. Grewal arrived at Manchester Airport on 9th June and sought admission as a visitor. The immigration officer was not satisfied that Mr. Grewal was genuinely coming for a visit and refused admission. My hon. Friend subsequently made representations to me but, after full consideration, I 239W could find no grounds for thinking that the immigration officer had come to the wrong conclusion. An application was then made to the High Court on Mr. Grewal's behalf, but on 4th July the Court dismissed the application. Accordingly, arrangements are being made for Mr. Grewal's return.
