Justice department paused hundreds of applications after teenager’s deportation order quashed on foot of ‘flawed procedure’

Last month, the court quashed a deportation order against an Albanian teenager known as MK who arrived here as an unaccompanied minor in 2016. The Department of Justice had decided that he should not be given permission to remain because officials did not believe his life would be under threat from criminals in Albania.
