“Great day for me as a father. In September 1998, I was brought to the Immigration Court at Hatton Cross in London in a security van to apply for immigration bail. My eldest son was aged 4 at the time. They didn’t grant me bail. He cried because they took me back to the detention Centre and did not grant me bail. Today, we both attended court as lawyers. Your life will change. Keep working hard friends.”
