Released grooming-gang offender cannot be deported due to 1971 immigration law

A grooming gang survivor known as Ruby encountered one of her abusers in a local supermarket and locked herself in a changing room in terror, GB News reported. She did not know the man had been released from prison. The man had previously threatened to kill Ruby and her sister at gunpoint if she spoke to police.

Ruby called Maggie Oliver in a complete and utter meltdown after the encounter. Oliver contacted Greater Manchester Police on Wednesday or Thursday. Ruby then received an urgent response marker and a 24/7 app on her phone.

Convicted Rochdale grooming gang ringleader Shabir Ahmed was released from prison, GB News reported. Ahmed was stripped of his British citizenship but cannot be deported due to protections under the Immigration Act 1971. Survivor Sarah Wilson was notified that two of her abusers could be set for early release.

Wilson stated that the justice she fought for was all for nothing. Oliver said there is no support for victims and not one tiny little piece. She said politicians had 14 years with Shabir Ahmed locked behind bars before looking at deportation.
