AN elderly man was “unlawfully killed” while locked inside an immigration detention centre by a fellow inmate, an inquest jury has found.

Business owner Tarek Chowdhury, 64, was fatally “attacked and beaten” at Colnbrook removal centre in west London on December 1, 2016.

The perpetrator, 33-year-old Iraqi detainee Zana Assad Yusif (alias Zana Ahmad), later pleaded guilty to manslaughter in a criminal trial at the Old Bailey on the basis of diminished responsibility.
