Secretary of State for The Home Department v MA (Somalia): CA 5 Feb 2015

The court was asked as to the proposed deportation of the respondent, MA, pursuant to the automatic deportation provisions of the 2007 Act by reason of his conviction in 2007 for offences of rape and attempted rape, for which he was sentenced to 10 years’ imprisonment. His appeal against deportation was allowed by the First-tier Tribunal on Article 8 ECHR grounds. The Secretary of State’s appeal to the Upper Tribunal against the FTT’s determination was dismissed. The Secretary of State now appealed against the UT’s determination.
