Description

Hamza Muktareq Tejani traveled thousands of miles and spent all his resources, trying to escape the conditions in Darfur. Six years later, he found himself in the UK, the place he wanted to call home. Then, he received some shocking news, official documents from the government that said he would be relocated to Rwanda. He could be one of thousands of refugees the UK is trying to sending away.
