HC Deb 28 July 1997 vol 299 cc2-3W
Mr. Maclennan

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department on what grounds the letter dated 20 July 1996 supplied by the assistant registrar Mohammedan of marriage and divorces, Nairobi is considered deficient as documentary evidence of the divorce in Kenya of Fatuma Njoki Ali Juma; and what further documentary evidence he requires. [10988]

Mr. Mike O'Brien

The immigration and nationality directorate has no reason to doubt the genuineness of the divorce certificate in question, but inquiries have been complicated by the fact that when Fatuma Juma applied for entry clearance to join her current husband she told the entry clearance officer in Nairobi that she had not previously been married.

Having considered all aspects of the case, the immigration and nationality directorate does not now propose to remove Fatuma Juma as an illegal entrant.
