A murderous immigrant from Uganda will not be deported after a British judge ruled that sending him back to his home country would be a breach of his human rights.
The UK Home Office has tried to deport from Uganda a murderer convicted for the 2006 gang murder of Eugene Breanna in London, but was once again thwarted by a left-wing judiciary and foreign laws.
The Ugandan national, who asked not to be named and only known as ZM, is one of three people sentenced to prison for chasing Breanna in the back of an ambulance and beating her to death with a baseball bat and a golf club.
ZM, who was 18 at the time of the murder and is now 37, was given a so-called “life sentence” but was only ordered to serve a minimum of 16 years.
Following his release, the UK government tried to deport the Ugandan national to his home country, but a judge blocked the deportation, saying it would violate his human rights guaranteed by the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR). As the UK is technically a separate entity from the EU, it is still bound by the provisions of the ECHR even after Brexit.
ZM's lawyers successfully persuaded the first instance immigration judge that it would be “inhumane” to deport him to Uganda because he suffers from a mental illness and the African country cannot provide the same level of care. Daily Mail Reports.
The decision to block deportation was upheld by Senior Immigration Judge Christopher John Hanson, who found that treatment for ZM's illness was “unavailable or unavailable” in his home country.
“I, [ZM] If transferred to Uganda, they would face a severe, rapid and irreversible deterioration in their health, extreme suffering and a significantly reduced life expectancy.
“All of these factors lead me to conclude that there is a real risk of abuse. [ZM’s] “Article 3 rights in the context of reception procedures in Uganda”
Left-leaning judges in the UK have a long history of blocking the deportation of foreign criminals. In 2020, for example, a deportation flight carrying many Jamaican criminals, including murderers and rapists, was blocked because they were briefly denied mobile phone access while in custody.
