An independent investigation into Oakington immigration reception centre and its removal practices is to be carried out by the prisons and probation ombudsman Stephen Shaw. It follows a BBC documentary this month alleging racism and mistreatment of detainees.

GSL, which manages and operates the centre, has also started an internal investigation. Fifteen employees have been suspended pending the outcome of the investigations.
