Family joining immigration wrangle mother

(The Press and Journal) – A mother at the centre of an immigration battle to bring her daughter to Scotland will be reunited with family members next week.

Megan McKay’s father, brother and sister will return to Angus from Africa at the start of the week. Her two-year-old daughter and mother will remain stranded in Mozambique.

Miss McKay, a British passport holder, moved to Dundee from Zimbabwe in November 2007 to get a house and job before her parents brought her daughter, McKenzie, to join her.
