Nine failed deportees still on the run
The group, made up of 12 Congolese and 14 Nigerians, were on board a flight costing €337,800 that was forced to turn back after Algerian aviation authorities withdrew permission to enter their airspace mid-flight.
The flight returned last July with the 26 deportees on board. Alan Shatter, the justice minister, said six of the 14 Nigerians had been subsequently deported, one more had been removed from the State, while 14 were awaiting deportation.
