      >A student “overstayer” who repeatedly raped a 12-year-old girl after arranging for taxis to bring her to his flat late at night has been jailed.

      >Wisal Ahmad, 30, had been studying in Scotland, but after running out of funds he ended up working in Bradford where he befriended the girl on social media, a court heard.

      >When Ahmad, of Belle Vue, Manningham, found out she was 12, he told her to keep their messages secret and began sending taxis to bring her to his home where he sexually assaulted her.

      >At Bradford Crown Court on Friday, he was jailed for 17 years after admitting rape, attempted rape, assault by penetration, making indecent photographs of a child and sexual communication with a child.

      >Ahmad was told he must also obey an indefinite sexual harm prevention order, which includes a ban on him going within 820ft (250m) of any school or nursery and prevents him living within 820ft of any playground or recreational area.

      >He must also register with the police as a sex offender for the rest of his life.

      >A student overstayer is an international student who remains in the country beyond the expiry date of their student visa.

      WTF were the parents/guardians thinking letting a 12 year old girl get into a taxi that just shows up at the house?

      This is a reminder that issue isn’t just small boats, you still need a functioning system for giving and refusing asylum for people who fly into the country on other visas. And in turn a functioning deportation system for the people refused, for people who overstay visas, and for people convicted of serious crimes.

      In the Mirrem EU-funded study the UK had the largest unauthorised population in Europe, as I recall the estimates range from about 800,000 to 1.2 million. And all those estimates come from before the Boriswave, the number is likely significantly higher now.

      With the best will in the world, why is this news. Man commits crime and is convicted and sentenced. Baker bakes bread, bus driver drives bus. The world turns.

      Clearly there is a motive behind reporting this particular case, but individual cases do not prove the majority of the orchard is “bad apples”
