UK government sets migrant free and gives $33k after attempted rape

Who are the lawyers representing such cases, and what is the fee basis?

This is quite a heavy read, but insightful nonetheless. If anything it shows the depth of judicial involvement.

I am pro justice, but sometime wonder if the "spirit" of the law is being applied haphazardly. For a law to be far. it must (in my book) be seen to be fair.

MW legal deportation

Yes this is, rightly, the case. Furthermore Parliament, and therefore 'democratic process' determines what is "cause". Cynical as we have all become about abuses to the process, the process is in place for democratic control. This is worth fighting for.

What is, I think, wrong is the abuse - not of the process but system the process gives rise to - by specialists who know how to exploit the rules laid down.

I suspect "the migrant" didn't bring the case of their own volition.

I suspect " the migrant" was told there was a case to be brought and it could be fought on a risk free "no win/no fee" basis.

I also suspect the case was paid for by Legal Aid - a democratic means of ensuring legal representation is paid for by the state for those who cannot afford it. I don't know how far "the migrant" would have been aware of their role as this source of fee income.

I think it only fair not only the judgement be made public, but also the mechanics/ economics of the case be made public.

In this case it seems the judge is keen on was as keen on punishing the system for 'unfair detention'. I wonder what the Judge, Mr Motts', agenda is.

I would wonder if the remedy isn't to detain people who cannot evidence their nationality, indefinitely or until nationality is proven.

We are still living under the absurd European court rules.
I would hope that, once we are finally free, our elected government will roll back the most extreme human rights rubbish like this and replace it with sensible rules that allow us to punish and deport scum like this properly.

If you can't prove where someone is from, give them the option of a raft in the Atlantic or coming clean about their country of origin.

Don't mention benefits.

Spinal problems stopped me working some years ago but in January my benefit was cut off.

Probably to pay for the govts legal bills because of continuous incompetence like this. I'm not even a criminal but in this new upside down, backwards country I'm starting to see how it might pay off a lot better.

Adding... Can anyone point me to a "human rights" case in the UK in the last ten years where the "person" being defended was actually worth defending???

99.99999999% of them as someone who is also disabled I'm suprised you're not aware of the right to life, right to existence, right to housing, right to vote, right to not be iprisoned, having a say in disability care,.... the list is endless.

Just one very important question. If he hadn't got any documents to prove his identity just how did he get a bank account to have his "award" paid into and how could he prove to the bank that the account was his.
Cos if your drawing out a few pounds OK. But if you try to draw a large figure out the bank wants to see complete identity documents passport etc.
And having just re-read the OP how do they come to the conclusion that he's Kurdish if he hasn't got any papers?
So why don't the deport him to Kurdistan?

Two years isn't a long enough sentence for attempted rape. I have no mercy for rapists and the UK paid him
