Asylum student and family can stay

An Albanian student threatened with deportation will remain in Scotland following a dramatic appeal by university chiefs to allow her to complete her studies.

Rosie Kane, the socialist MSP, who met the family three months before their arrest, said: "It's three times in the last two weeks that families have been released because it was found that their case has not been concluded. Clearly, they are being picked up because their cases have not been properly examined.
"There's absolutely no reason why they should have been put through this horrendous trauma."
