In Detention

"In Detention" is a book which focuses on an insight into the Political, Moral and Religious issues affecting Immigration. It is written by an Anglican Priest, Fr Keith Jeffries who was at one time the Co-ordinating Chaplain of an Immigration Detention Centre in the United Kingdom. The book deals with numerous aspects of detention for asylum seekers and refugees who are held in detention prior to being allowed to remain in the UK or deported to their home country. Fr Keith is forthright in his condemnation of this process outlining the unnecessary human suffering involved and the incompetence of government policy in respect of immigration. The book was initially written in 2012 but has now been updated in the present version.
