Girls yearn for mother who fled

THE children of a South African woman who fled from Kerry to London to avoid a deportation order talk about their mother every day, their carer said yesterday.

Nothing has been heard from asylum seeker Nteta Appiarkoran, 38, and gardaí from the National Immigration Bureau in Dublin are working with London police with a view to extraditing her back here.

Cara Wallace-Costelloe, who is minding Ms Appiarkoran’s daughters Senita, 11, and Yesunia, eight, yesterday said she was worried about her friend’s safety.
