'A series of false rape allegations have been made by illegal immigrants awaiting deportation at detention centers, DailyMail.com can reveal.

Thirty-six claims were found to be false in just one year, the figures, released under Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) rules disclosed.

The scale of the false allegations was described as a concern by a watchdog group, who said it raised questions over whether illegal immigrants were trying to delay or dodge deportation by making untrue rape or sexual assault claims.
