Ugandan woman on hunger strike moved to Dungavel in Scotland for no good reason

A Ugandan woman on hunger strike in immigration detention to protest against deportation to Uganda, where her life would be in danger, has missed her medical appointment and moved to Scotland's Dungavel. Close Dungavel people please help us.

C. was supposed to have a medical examination yesterday, Thursday 19th August, to assess her condition as she has been on hunger strike for over 20 days. She was not allowed to attend the medical and instead was driven through the night from Colnbrook near Heathrow to Dungavel in Scotland. This unnecessary cruelty means that she is further isolated from her friends and supporters. Calling on the Close down Dungavel people for support. Her extension in Dungavel is x233.
