Janahan is a law student at Birkbeck, University of London. He was motivated to study law after experiencing the UK’s immigration system first hand, as a Tamil refugee. He was named runner up for the Future Legal Mind award 2020, for his essay on discrimination against Foreign National Offenders embedded in the UK immigration system. In 2019 Janahan undertook an internship in the legal team at JCWI and has written about his experiences on our blog.
