UK – Abdalla Ali Hemed, \u00a052, came to Scotland on a false passport in 2002 but was granted indefinite leave to stay after fleeing the oppressive military regime in his home country Somalia.<\/p>\n

In 2004, Hemed and a gang of men subjected his first victim to serious sexual assault in a flat in Aberdeen.\u00a0At the time of the attack, he was out on bail for allegedly carrying a knife.<\/p>\n

In 2006, Hemed attacked another three woman. He was eventually caught and remanded in custody.\u00a0On being freed later that month he was re-arrested after trying to leave his flat with a knife later telling police he was on his way to a nearby flat to kill the person who lived there.\u00a0Hemed was convicted of breach of the peace in relation to that incident.<\/p>\n

In 2008 Hemed was jailed for nine years.<\/p>\n

The Home Secretary at the time, Theresa May, launched a legal bid to have the 52-year-old removed from Britain in 2013.<\/p>\n

He successfully appealed the move on human rights’ grounds claiming his life would be in danger if he was forced to return to Somalia because he is from a minority ethnic group.<\/p>\n

The Home Office challenged that ruling but yesterday the Court of Session in Edinburgh ruled in favour of Hemed by refusing the appeal.\u00a0He was allowed to remain under Articles 2 and 3 of the European Convention on Human Rights, which guarantee the right to life and prohibit torture.<\/p>\n

Delivering the decision \u00a0Judge Lord Carloway stated that, “(Hemed) could not realistically be expected to relocate to Mogadishu (Somalia). There was no error of law in carrying out that exercise. The appeal must be refused.”<\/p>\n

The decision comes despite Abdalla Ali Hemed being described as being a “danger to the public”.<\/p>\n
