The judge ruled that the detention of over 60 Sri Lankan Tamil asylum seekers on the remote island of Diego Garcia was unlawful, highlighting legal and humanitarian concerns.
The asylum seekers were held for years in a fenced-off camp on Diego Garcia, a strategic military location, raising questions about their rights and the UK's immigration policies.
The UK government's handling of the asylum seekers, described as a one-off move to bring them to mainland UK, has been criticized as inadequate considering their prolonged detention.
