Asylum seekers have been removed from Rwanda and transferred to countries where they may be at risk as recently as this year, the British High Court has been told.

Several individual asylum seekers are bringing legal action against the UK Home Office over removals to Rwanda, with some claims to be heard at a hearing in early July.
