UK - Rapist wins £50,000 for time awaiting deportation

And why couldn't they deport him?

A convicted rapist who poses a high risk of reoffending is to receive damages of up to £50,000 after being detained unlawfully pending deportation.

The High Court has ruled that the asylum-seeker, identified only as A, had been held illegally for 20 months when there was no prospect of deporting him because of the unstable situation in his homeland.

What about the situation in our homeland?

So, what's his situation now?

Mr Justice Calvert Smith refused to release the 31-year-old man, who sat in court flanked by two security guards, because it was now more likely that he could be removed from Britain.

So, why give him the feeking money? This is insane.
