Muslims getting baptised in churches 'to avoid deportation from the UK'
Muslim asylum seekers may be converting to Christianity to avoid being deported, a senior Church of England cleric has claimed.
"Holding a baptism certificate significantly enhances the strength" of asylum claims, said Wilcox.Reuters
According to the Dean of Liverpool, Rev Pete Wilcox, "mixed motives are not unheard of" when it comes to asylum seekers choosing to be baptised.
Liverpool Cathedral has baptised some 200 asylum seekers over the past four years. Wilcox told The Times: "Holding a baptism certificate significantly enhances the strength of their claim for asylum. Once you are a baptised Christian it is really not conceivable that you would be deported to a Muslim country."
