Overview
- Police Scotland confirmed it has received reports that several athletes were unaccounted for after the Glasgow competition and said enquiries are ongoing with early engagement from the Home Office.
- Pakistan's boxing federation has launched an investigation after Qudratullah was not found in the team hotel before a planned departure and did not travel home despite his passport being reported as held by team management.
- Ugandan media named four boxers — Angel Katushabe, Nuhu Batte, Ibrahim Khemis and Emily Nakalema — who missed the return flight, and one athlete told NBS Sport the group intended to seek asylum to pursue better training and opportunities.
- Organisers and police said they are working with Border Force and UK Visas and Immigration to check for breaches of immigration rules and to process any claims on their merits.
- The incidents, which follow similar absences by athletes at recent multi‑nation events, raise fresh questions about federation oversight, athlete welfare and how teams manage passports and travel arrangements.
