In the UK, a group of people investigated what happened at a place where immigrants are kept, and they found serious mistakes. These mistakes played a part in the sad death of a Colombian man named Frank Ospina, who died in 2023 because he hurt himself.
The investigation showed that Frank did not get the help he needed when he felt very sad and upset while he was at the Harmondsworth Immigration Centre. This left him feeling worse and likely led to his death.
Lydia Brown, who is like a detective for such cases, said she felt very sorry and upset. She said that many things went wrong while Frank was in detention, and he was not properly cared for by the system.
Frank was 39 years old. He came to the UK in 2022 to see his mom and think about studying more. He got in trouble for working without permission and was taken to the detention center.
While at Harmondsworth, Frank’s feelings got very low and sad. On March 26, 2023, he was found dead because he harmed himself badly.
The investigation found that the doctors and nurses missed a big step. They should have written a special report when they saw Frank was very sad or might hurt himself. This report could have helped review Frank’s situation and maybe even led to his release.
Frank’s family shared that he really wanted to go back to his country. He asked both his family and the staff for help.
His brother-in-law, Julian Llano, shared that Frank begged for help and explained his feelings were very bad.
The investigation also pointed out that separating Frank from his mom during visits by using a glass wall was not okay. This made him feel even more alone and sad.
The staff at the Center did not check properly on the night Frank died. They didn’t see that he wasn’t in his bed and later found him after he had harmed himself.
Since this happened, the people in charge, called the Home Office, said they are sorry to Frank’s family. They promised to make the detention places better by bringing in more helpers and giving them better training.
The company called Mitie, which manages the center, admitted they were wrong to keep Frank’s family in a closed-off room during visits. They have said sorry for this mistake.
Mitie said, “We care a lot about the people here. We know it was wrong to keep Frank’s family behind glass, and we’re sorry. We’ve started making changes and are working with the Home Office to fix these issues.”
Frank’s story has made people worry again about how immigrants are treated in these centers. Even though there have been efforts to make things better, many problems still exist, especially with the push to send back more individuals who are not allowed to stay.
A spokesperson from the Home Office said, “We send our deepest thoughts to Frank’s family and have made changes since his death in 2023. We now have more staff, better training, and new rules to help keep everyone safe. We are also reviewing how to better communicate about the risks to people in these centers.”
