Britain deports Pakistani child sex offender

Britain has deported Pakistani child sex offender Zulfqar Hussain to his home country after he lost a legal battle to stay on in Britain.

"We will not accept foreign nationals like Zulfqar Hussain breaking our laws. Those who commit serious offences should be removed at the earliest possible opportunity", The News quoted Britain''s immigration minister Damien Green said.

He left for Islamabad after the court had ruled out he be allowed to stay in Britain along with his wife and children.

A court in Preston earlier had sentenced him to over five years imprisonment on the charges of sexual activity with a minor, detaining a child without lawful authority and possession of drugs with intent to supply.

The authorities were able to deport him to Pakistan, as he did not have British citizenship was only granted indefinite leave to stay in the country.
