Irish-born children among 61 illegals deported

THREE Irish-born children were among a mass deportation early yesterday of failed asylum seekers.

Support agencies have demanded greater transparency as 61 illegals were whisked to two central European counties in a 2am flight out of Dublin.

The Irish Refugee Council together with the Children’s Rights Alliance and the Irish Commission for Justice and Peace highlighted grave concerns after a series of pre-dawn raids over the past week ended in the €71,590 chartered dead-of-night flight.
