British Govt Start Vetting Asylum Seekers In Collaboration With Zimbabwean Embassy Officials
The British Government is said to working with Zimbabwean embassy staff in the country to vet all Zimbabwean asylum in the United Kingdom according to a report.
Several Zimbabwean nationals told the Independent that they were ordered to report to the Home Office (Home Affairs) in Sheffield where they were questioned by an embassy official from Zimbabwe.
The move comes after the governments of Zimbabwe and Britain agreed for the repatriation of 2 500 Zimbabweans living in the UK.
One of the concerned Zimbabweans who spoke to the Independent identified as Marianne Machekanyanga, 54, who has been in the UK for 16 years said
The man had my file on the table. He started speaking to me in my native language. I asked him if I could call my solicitor and he said no. He said the Home Office had asked him to interview us.

I was really frightened. Why is the Home Office giving my details to the government I ran away from? I know they will still be after me. Anyone who has claimed asylum in England is an enemy to the government.
I know I will be in danger if I go back. Just because Mugabe is not in power doesn’t mean the government has changed. The same government is still in control. I don’t think I would see my family. I would get to the airport and they would take me to torture me, kill me, who knows.
What is going to happen to my children and other relatives in Zimbabwe now? I’m very scared about what they will do.
