Kelemua Mulat, who was denied potentially life-saving cancer treatment amid confusion about whether she should be charged has died aged 39.

“The Home Office, they killed her – they really did,” said Jackson, an interpreter for Ethiopians living in Britain. “This girl needed help at that time. I love this country and my kids were born in this country but the way this happened – the way they stopped her treatment – it has to be highlighted.” 'Mulat arrived in Britain in July 2015, five years after fleeing Ethiopia when her partner, the father of her daughter, was reputedly shot dead by pro-government forces after he took part in protests.
