Migrant who beat person to death in ambulance is allowed to fight deportation as he risks ill treatment --[Reported by Umva mag]

A MIGRANT who beat a person to death in an ambulance has been allowed to fight deportation as he risks ill treatment if sent home.

The Ugandan, 37, who cannot be named for legal reasons, was part of a gang who chased their victim into the back of the vehicle.

The killing was then carried out in front of the paramedics.

He was convicted of murder in 2005 and got life with a minimum term of 16 years at the Old Bailey.

He was subject to a deportation order back to Uganda on his release but appealed at a tribunal in Nottingham last year.

A judge granted the appeal under the European Convention on Human Rights — after hearing evidence from a doctor that the migrant has a severe psychiatric disorder and faces ill treatment if returned to his country.

He said: “I find that if the appellant was removed to Uganda there would be serious, rapid and irreversible decline in their state of health resulting in intense suffering or significant reduction in life expectancy.”

The Home Office challenged that ruling on the grounds that the doctor who gave evidence “did not have knowledge of psychiatric facilities in Uganda.”

But another judge at a hearing in Bradford has found that the tribunal findings were “adequately reasoned”.

He ruled the First-tier Tribunal Judge had not materially erred in law and that the Home Office should reconsider the deportation order.
