Liberty has won permission to seek a public inquiry over the "shameful" conditions it says foreign nationals were held in at a west London immigration detention centre.
The human rights pressure group contends that vulnerable detainees were left in overcrowded, flooded cells without food or water while fires burned during a riot at Harmondsworth in November 2006.

The way detained asylum seekers get treated is an outrage, but so far it's a hidden outrage. It needs to be brought to light and this is one good way of doing that.
