Border Force put Costa Koushiappis on plane to Amsterdam with three days’ notice after request to remain rejected
An EU citizen caught up in a Home Office backlog of applications for post-Brexit residency status has been forcibly removed from the UK.
Costa Koushiappis, 39, a Greek Cypriot, was put onboard a plane to Amsterdam with only three days’ notice. Speaking as he was being escorted on to the aircraft in Edinburgh shortly before 9am on Friday, he said he could not understand his unfolding nightmare.
