A newlywed couple from the UK were detained at an airport in the US for 26 hours and then deported, apparently because the groom was Muslim, according to British media reports. Natasha Politakis, 29, and her new husband Ali Gul, 32, paid 7,000 pounds for their two-week trip to Los Angeles, Hawaii and Las Vegas. They ended up having to spend more than a day in Los Angeles International Airport, before being they were refused entry entirely and flown back to the UK. When they tried to find out why they were detained, officials handcuffed them and marched them onto a flight back to London. The couple managed to book a last-minute holiday to Mexico instead, and are now in the process of trying to get their money back from their insurance.
