The Home Office may face challenges in returning sexual attacker Hadush Gerberslasie Kebatu to Ethiopia.
According to new legal provisions, Mr Kebatu should qualify for automatic and immediate deportation to Ethiopia. However, according to the Home Office, there are certain areas in Ethiopia that they consider unsafe. As a result, individuals facing deportation could potentially prevent their removal by claiming persecution or the right to a family life under the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR).
Hadush Gerberslasie Kebatu arrived in the UK on a small boat. The Labour government welcomed him and accommodated him at the comfortable 3-star Bell Hotel in the picturesque town of Epping, located northeast of London. The hotel’s website states, “With a stay at the Bell Hotel, you’ll be within a 10-minute drive of Epping Forest.”
The hotel website states that room facilities feature flat-screen televisions, complimentary Internet access, bathrooms with shower/tub combinations, hair dryers, electric kettles, daily housekeeping and irons and ironing boards.
Within days of Mr Kebatu’s arrival in Epping, he committed sexual assaults against a 14-year-old girl and an adult woman. He received a mere 12-month prison sentence and may be released after just a few months.
Why didn’t this case go to the Crown Court, where he could have faced a much longer sentence? If he had been sentenced to just one day more than twelve months, he would have been eligible for automatic deportation.
This case illustrates the urgent need for stronger measures to combat illegal immigration and fraudulent asylum seekers, as well as the necessity for harsher penalties for grooming gang members, child molesters, and rapists.
For example, the Ethiopian child molester in Epping received only a 12-month sentence. In contrast, Lucy Connolly was sentenced to 31 months in prison for a social media post.
Sentences for members of grooming gangs, rapists, and child molesters are often inadequate. However, when immigrants commit sexual crimes—both legal and illegal—as well as asylum seekers, the sentences are typically lighter, usually because of a fear of being labelled as Islamophobic or racist.
The lifelong effects of sexual assaults on victims are often overlooked. Survivors may carry deep psychological scars for the rest of their lives. In a personal statement to the court, the teenage victim from Epping expressed that she now feels “vulnerable and exposed” when wearing a skirt due to the assault. Therefore, the 12-month prison sentence— with the possibility of parole after just a few months— handed down to the illegal immigrant Hadush Gerberslasie Kebatu is disturbing and unjust.
The British Democrats believe that we must exit the ECHR immediately; it’s essential to stop the boat invasion of the UK.

“Certain areas of Ethiopia are unsafe”….. Doesn’t that apply to the entire third world? At the end of the day, it’s not our problem….they evidently make Britain more unsafe for exactly the same reasons their own countries are unsafe.
Our people’s compassion and sense of fairness have been weaponised against them, the entire anti-European “racism” racket has to be dismantled starting with a swift exit from the ECHR.
