Gretna 'Couples' To Be Deported

An operation by the UK Border Agency at Scotland's wedding capital has lead to three people facing deportation.

A man from India and two women from Mauritius are due to be removed from the country following an investigation into ceremonies at Gretna registration office on 28 and 29 February.


Phil Taylor, UKBA regional director in Scotland and Northern Ireland, said: "The UKBA is working with colleagues at registration offices throughout Scotland and receives intelligence from a wide variety of sources.

"We will not hesitate to act against those who mistakenly believe that they can abuse the immigration system."
