LONDON: Four men convicted of grooming girls for sex in a case that fuelled racial tensions in Britain face deportation to Pakistan after a judge upheld a government decision on Thursday to strip them of British citizenship.
The ruling by an immigration tribunal clears the way for the men, all of Pakistani nationality, to be removed from Britain. They acquired British citizenship by naturalisation.
They were among nine men of Pakistani and Afghan descent convicted of luring girls as young as 13 into sexual encounters using alcohol and drugs. They were based in Rochdale, in northern England.
Among the four facing deportation is ringleader Shabir Ahmed, sentenced in 2012 to 22 years in jail. The other three are Adil Khan, Qari Abdul Rauf and Abdul Aziz. Ahmed, who was convicted of rape as well as other charges, remains in custody, while the other three men have been released on licence.
Khan, Rauf and Aziz were convicted on conspiracy and trafficking for sexual exploitation charges. Aziz was not convicted of having sexual intercourse with any child.
The judge at the hearing in the upper tribunal of the Immigration and Asylum Chamber, Mr Justice McClosky, described their crimes as “shocking, brutal and repulsive”.
His decision rejected claims concerning human rights laws and a complaint of “disproportionate interference” with their rights.
The case centres on a decision by Prime Minister Theresa May, when she was home secretary, to strip the men’s citizenship “for the public good”.
The five victims of the gang who gave evidence in the 2012 trial were all white, and spoke of being raped, assaulted and traded for sex, being passed from man to man, and sometimes being too drunk to stop the abuses.
The men, ranging in age from 22 to 59, used various defences, including claiming the girls were prostitutes.
Rochdale MP Simon Danczuk said the four men who appeared at the tribunal on Thursday should be deported “as soon as possible” saying “foreign-born criminals should not be able to hide behind human rights laws to avoid deportation”.

All of them are naturalized citizens not by birth so they are being deported to the first/original country of citizenship unless they have revoked their original citizenship.
Problem with this action is that these individuals are not being given opportunity of complete due process and should have been given chance of final appeal process etc.
Deportation itself should not be equivalent to punishment for heinous crimes like rape and other interferences.
As usual its a political game from politicians instead of giving relief to victims and due process to the system that exist for hundred of years.

British citizens believe in their Law and know that justice will be delivered to them when they will seek it. In our own country many minors and even grown up victims of sexual abuse do not cone to courts as they know that they will not be dispensed any justice. Rather society stigmatizes such victims. About these four Pakistani sex offenders I say that they should not loose heart. They will be more out of the ken of justice in Pakistan than they were in Britain. All my sympathies are with the victims of sex abuse and I am ashamed that convicted people beling to my cast and creed.

When you lack skills, there are chances of becoming criminal. Then you have an indoctrinated mindset about women and child rights (Pakistan No 143 among 144 countries in treatment of women).
Average Pakistani schooling is 4 years, which is one of lowest in the world. Skills come with education (science in particular), but we have inherent bias against science nationally).
When we are in large numbers in any foreign country, we carve a Pakistani 'atmosphere' there instead of integrating in the host society.

The 90% of gang members of rotherthem child abuse case belongs to west punjab of pakistan. So decide yourself what is the problem.

Pakistan should not accept the sex offenders. They are British citizens. They should be dealt with as per British law. Pakistan should have nothing to do with a former citizen once its citizenship had been renounced to accept another country's citizenship.

The Pakistani Government should also trial them once they deported to Pakistan. In Canadian System of judgement, if a Canadian citizen convicted abroad on sexual charges will also be prosecuted in Canada. Therefore, Pakistan Government also has the right to trials these bad apples who defamed Pakistan.

If they have acquired British nationality they are British citizens ...... dual nationals in this case......who have opted to stay in Britain. Why should Pakistan take them back ? They will walk free in Pakistan as they have committed no crime in Pakistan.
This just appears wrong.

These men are a disgrace to Pakistani, Muslim community and humanity in general, they deserve the most sever punishment available in law, how would they feel if someone did the same to their daughters, through their evil actions they have destroyed many lives, child abuse is worse then murder because victims of this horrific crime die everyday for the rest of their life. I hope that people in Pakistan especially the police and law enforcement agencies take more responsibility to tackle all forms of child abuse especially child sexual abuse which is so so widespread and tolerated in the country. All children are pure and full of potential and deserve protection and assistance to grow up to be healthy productive as they are the future of any society. Invest in children now for a successful productive cohesive society in 20-30 years time.

"... should not be able to hide behind human right laws"? If you analyze this phrase it simply means that the MP does not believe in rule of law. What does he mean by "hiding behind a law?" Stripping them of citizenship and deporting them is not a solution. Just put them in jail and let them rot for the crimes they have committed, just like you would do to any other criminal citizen or not. Or, is it that there is no clear evidence and deportation seems like an easy way out for the racially charged media trial?

@maverik "Keep this British filth in Britain. We don't want them in Pakistan"
Funny. Remains to be seen if those filth can even survive in Pakistan - who knows though, they may even flourish.
British Indians with more population in millions (1.5 mil vs 1.15 mil) do not seem to get caught for such crimes or get deported. Ditto with other Europeans or any other nationalities. Perhaps, this precedent of stripping citizenship is the correct track for Britain and the west in general.

They broke the law in UK and there is evidence against them. Why is the UK government not prosecuting and sending them to jail? They are being set free after raping and exploiting women and children. Is this injustice by UK government.
The crimes were not committed in Pakistan and there are no local cases or evidence against them. How can Pakistani government convict them?
If one of them had killed a British citizen would he just have been deported?

@Khan USA
Under the laws of Pakistan, dual citizenship is allowed and a person obtaining British citizenship does not have to give up Pakistani citizenship. It also applies to seventeen other countries e.g. USA, Italy, France, Australia. Under British law, their British citizenship can be revoked but only if they do have citizenship of another country and are not left stateless.

@Tariq
They were dual nationals as they hadn't renounced their Pakistani citizenship, which was their choice. (see Pakistan citizenship Act, 1951)
If they had renounced their Pakistani citizenship, Britain wouldn't have been able to revoke their British citizenship as that would have left them stateless (UN Convention on the Reduction of Statelessness, 1961).
