Immigration Control (Gross Human Rights Abuses) Act

The Immigration Control (Gross Human Rights Abuses) Act 2018 is a UK law that allows the government to impose immigration controls on individuals involved in serious human rights violations abroad. It aims to prevent those responsible for atrocities, such as genocide or torture, from entering or remaining in the UK. The act empowers authorities to refuse visas or deport individuals when there are credible allegations of their involvement in such abuses, enhancing the UK's commitment to upholding human rights and protecting vulnerable populations from perpetrators.
