Rapist in UK claiming he is Bisexual Avoids Deportation to Jamaica Amid Fear of Persecution

[Social Media]

 

A Jamaican man convicted of rape has avoided deportation from the UK after judges ruled he could face persecution in his home country due to his bisexuality. The case has sparked debate after an upper tribunal upheld the decision to allow him to remain in the UK despite his criminal conviction and the Home Office's attempts to remove him.

 

The man, identified only as AA, was convicted in 2018 for raping a sleeping woman at a party. At the time, AA claimed he did not understand that engaging in sexual activity with someone asleep constituted rape. He served a seven-year sentence for what a tribunal described as a "serious offence." Following his conviction, he expressed remorse, wrote an apology to the victim, and attended a victim awareness course.

 

At the initial tribunal hearing, Judge Mary Mulready noted AA’s troubled past in Jamaica. As a teenager, he entered into a relationship with an older man, which he did not recognize as abuse at the time. That man was later murdered. During his adolescence in Jamaica, AA experienced repeated violent attacks, which left him with scars from assaults involving a machete, a metal bar, and even dogs.

 

The tribunal also reviewed expert evidence on anti-LGBTQ+ attitudes in Jamaica. It found that AA would likely face significant discrimination and potentially violence if deported. Judge Mulready ruled that the man’s fear of persecution in Jamaica was “well-founded,” citing evidence of ingrained hostility toward LGBTQ+ individuals in the country.

 

While Mulready expressed doubts about AA’s credibility in some aspects of his testimony, she acknowledged his participation in rehabilitation efforts, including the victim awareness course. She also noted that the threat of imprisonment acted as a deterrent for reoffending, even if AA lacked complete insight into his crime.

 

In 2023, the case was reviewed by the upper tribunal, with Judge Melissa Canavan agreeing with the original decision. Canavan highlighted the “embedded nature of anti-gay and LGBTQI+ attitudes in Jamaica,” concluding that AA would likely face treatment similar to the violence he had endured in the past.

 

The Home Office, which had sought to deport AA upon his release, expressed dissatisfaction with the ruling. A spokesperson stated, “We make no apology for wanting to remove foreign national offenders at the earliest opportunity. We work with law enforcement to ensure there is no barrier to deport foreign criminals, as it is in the public interest for these people to be removed swiftly.”

 

While AA’s legal team emphasized the danger he would face in Jamaica, critics of the decision argue that public safety and accountability should take precedence. The case has reignited discussions about balancing human rights protections with the public interest in removing foreign offenders.

Why would you put the safety of your own citizens at risk over a heinous criminal. The UK really needs to drain their swamp of civil servants and officials with deranged thinking to get society back on track...

Do they still catch overstayers and let them go if they have no passport? Whoever invented that policy? ...just crazy..

This has been happening for over two decades in Western countries. Foreigners can use excuses to avoid deportation and citizens would use excuses to get leniency on crimes of getting higher priorities on whatever welfare/handout they are after. Common excuses include things such as claiming to be homosexual, or having a 'mental illness'. It all needs to go and by that I am talking about the ideology that has been pathetically getting worse for decades: Modern Liberalism. Feminism, crying about racism, pretending to be mentally ill and all of that <deleted> is done with by scraping that poisonous ideology.

He's clearly playing the system, and the Lefties will back him up due to his "human rights" or whatever. 

 

The UK continues it's journey down the toilet.

He was convicted of a rape in 2018, the ruling on his deportation was passed on 2023.

 

It’s chilly this morning, you might need to take your mitts off to count back to figure out what those dates tell you about who was running the country at the time.

I think it was a fictional character in a Charles Dickens book who said - 'the law is an ass'. the same is going on in Ireland - judges giving completely daft judgements, ignoring the victim to 'give a break', to the perps.   time  after time,    (and, from what i read, the  population is not exactly thrilled about this direction the judiciary is taking)

And when you cannot deported a convicted rapist the Law really is an Ass, and needs destroyed by fire and fully re-written

 The world has gone mad. Rapists turning gay to avoid deportation. Gay... He was convicted of raping a sleeping woman. 

 Convicted men identifying as female to be sent to a woman's prison. 

The sooner we leave the European Court of human rights and  curtail woke human rights lawyers making a fortune from the legal aid system helping these criminals  avoid justice the better our country will be.

Why is legal aid given to foreigners and illegal immigrants?

 

Just asking.....

I see you’ve paid have got the message.

 

Though you’ve not yet worked out that human rights laws also protect you and your family.

 

They do however er get in the way of big business and big profits.

 

Choose wisely.

His alleged troubled past allowed him to escape to the Uk and freedom. He responded by raping an unconscious woman. 

[black tabby12345]

Court judge Granting a Defacto Permanent Residency to the rapist?

 

An Idiot in wig creating a Big Loophole/Safe Heaven  for the dangerous criminal aliens.

 

Sex offenders/perverts all over the world must be overjoyed.

Just like UK's announcing:

Come here and commit a sexual crime: Then you can be a Lawful Settler with ease.

To be qualified, You only have to say you are among the sexual minority not tolerated back home(subject to harsh penalty on return).

 

That bast*rd deserves both deportation and castration(by blade).
