Uk Asylum System. Fit For Purpose?

I'm not denying it doesn't happen. 

 

I'm saying it's not a simple case of judging someone's age based on their facial features and of course courts require evidence.

 

So what happens when someone arrives in the UK without any proof of age, maintains their 16 and the home office can't disprove that?

Apparently dental checks are accurate and reliable but there's a human rights issue. They can't check unless the asylum seeker gives permission

There are ways to disprove that but it upsets human rights campaigners
