Colombian migrant died at UK immigration centre after begging to be sent home, A Colombian migrant took his own life at an immigration detention centre after 'multiple failings' by officials, an inquest jury has found.

Frank Ospina, 39, died in March 2023 at the facility near Heathrow where he was being held despite allegedly begging to go home to Colombia.

The jury at his inquest found that his case should have been reviewed on account of his worsening mental health, which may have led to a decision to release him on bail.
Mr Ospina, an engineering graduate, first came to the UK in late 2022 to visit his mother and tour several universities.

After deciding instead to begin a master's course in Spain, he look a temporary job washing dishes - according to his family - before being arrested during an immigration raid and found to be working illegally.
