Deported Albanian woman despite being pregnant, Icelandic government admits guilt and compensates

Iceland has paid compensation to an Albanian asylum seeker who was deported while she was nine months pregnant.

The Icelandic government has accepted responsibility for the deportation of the 26-year-old Albanian in 2019 who was pregnant and the medical staff had advised against her deportation as a result of her health condition.

The family in question was taken by the police in November 2019 and was informed that he had to be deported. The family woman after being visited at a local hospital received certification that she was unable to travel. Moreover, the family case was still pending review and a final decision by the Immigration Appeals Board.

In the end, a doctor working on behalf of the Immigration Directorate claimed that the woman was in good enough condition to leave and the whole family, the father, the 9-month pregnant mother and the two-year-old child, were arrested and sent to airport.

The case provoked strong reaction from religious representatives, the Directorate of Health, but also members of parliament. The acceptance of responsibility by the government was officially acknowledged on Wednesday. According to them, the decision of the doctor of the Immigration Directorate was in violation of the law.

The Albanian lawyer confirmed the acceptance of responsibility, but did not reveal how much money the Icelandic state will pay to the Albanian family.

"We hope that this incident will wake up the Icelandic government and consider and provide humane treatment to those individuals seeking international protection in this country. "Sometimes we forget that we are talking about people, individuals of ours, who are in great need," said lawyer Claudia Ashonie Wilson.
