‘The claimant, a national of Uganda, claims damages for unlawful immigration detention and for misfeasance in public office. The unlawful detention claim relates to the period from 12 July 2012 to 26 September 2012, the claimant’s case being that she should not have been detained because there was independent evidence that she was a victim of torture, rendering her detention contrary to the defendant’s published policy. The defendant, the Home Secretary, denies that there was independent evidence of torture in the claimant’s case. !
