Outsourcing giant under fire over man’s death in immigration detention
Marcin Gwozdzinski from Poland died at Harmondsworth in 2017
SECURITY privateer Mitie’s management will come under scrutiny after a Polish man was able to take his own life at the firm’s largest immigration detention centre near Heathrow.
A two-week inquest opens tomorrow at West London coroner’s court to probe the role of Mitie, the Home Office and the NHS in the death of 28-year-old Marcin Gwozdzinski.
Mr Gwozdzinski died in hospital on September 7 2017 after he collapsed at the Harmondsworth removal centre, where he had spent nine months awaiting deportation.
