Sudanese NHS doctor 'betrayed' after being refused entry onto evacuation flight to UK

Sudanese NHS doctor 'betrayed' after being refused entry onto evacuation flight to UK An NHS doctor trapped in Sudan after visiting family for Eid has urged the government to fly him back to the UK, saying he feels "betrayed" after being turned away from evacuation flights.

Sudanese-born Dr Abdulrahman Babiker is due back on shift as a registrar at the Manchester Royal Infirmary on Tuesday.

Despite having a UK work permit, he cannot board an evacuation flight as they only accept UK passport holders.

BBC Two's Newsnight has learned of at least 24 NHS doctors in this position. BBC News
