So just to be clear...breaks in to a lone female students room, thankfully she's not there, then decides to knock one out over her possessions.

At first pretends to be innocent, only admits it after hes presented with DNA evidence. Suspended sentence. Not deported. Not kicked out of uni.

I've mentioned the story on here before but a guy from my uni (quite possibly the same uni as this story) was kicked out for a later disproven accusation of rape whereby his accuser was actually charged.

Also MASSIVE safeguarding issue with the fact the access card system allowed access to any room.

Why are we so soft on crime?
 
It mentions the University were waiting until this sentencing hearing to decide what to do as far as his course/visa goes, will be interesting to see how they now respond.

Irrelevant when he had already been found guilty though. As I pointed out someone likely from that same university was expelled based purely on being charged of a sex crime.
 
The last sentence of the linked story says: Miss Mellor said Yadav, who has completed first year and wants to progress to masters level, has a student visa but would have to leave the UK if that were withdrawn and added: "The university has said they will consider that position following the sentencing hearing.". Seems a bit premature to claim he won't be kicked out of uni, hopefully they'll act appropriately now the legal side has wrapped up.

I am surprised that a custodial sentence, even a suspended one, isn't grounds for immediate revocation of a student visa though but apparently suspended sentences aren't counted as custodial sentences for the purpose of visa acceptance or cancellation which means any cancellation of his visa is discretionary rather than mandatory.

I didn't say he won't be, just that he hasn't. As myself and Sid have pointed out, and you acknowledge, the crime he was convicted of should have been enough of a trigger. No need to wait for sentencing. His victim stands the chance of seeing him every day at uni.
 
Shall we add more information from the article, rather than leave just the info to appease your rant?

What does any of that change? This is a sentencing hearing, he was found guilty of the crime some time ago and is still at that university. Why? Or do you find knocking one off in to a strangers bed and teddies acceptable?
 
You misspelled "judges who follow the law". Human rights are Human rights; they're not "only Humans who are not total *******" rights - as they were drafted by British lawyers in the aftermath of WWII, passed into international law by general agreement shortly afterwards, and embedded into British domestic law in the Human Rights Act. It's not judges who get to decide whether or not he has human rights; that is the decision of various Governments and Parliaments that have come before.

Interpretations of the law.
 
Why would anyone have an issue with him being deported anyway? He's not a British citizen. He's here on a student visa. It should be a privilege to come over here to study, not a right. And instead of making the most of that opportunity, he decides to break the law instead. :confused:

If it's "far right bigotry" to want to cancel his visa despite him being a sex pest then we are truly lost.



Fair enough. But if you can avoid extradition to most of the world by simply claiming you are gay and that you would be discriminated against in prison, then it's something that clearly needs changing.

Where do we draw the line? I'm sure gay guys get discriminated against in UK prisons too. Should we just not imprison them at all?

Your gay example is actually spot on...
