Father physically removed from family for deportation
Lovis Asibor had taken his legal battle to stay in Ireland all the way to the Supreme Court. His test case for leave to stay with his wife Tina and his two Irish-born daughters Omo, 6, and Lianne, 3, was lost in December 2009.
The case revolved around the controversial ruling that fathers of Irish citizen children who had arrived in Ireland after 2005, when children born in Ireland to foreign parents lost an automatic right to Irish citizenship, could be deported.
