Judge Brown also said: "I'm told there are now potential consequences for your status as a refugee.
"I say nothing about deportation as that's a matter for the Secretary of State."Well I should hope that the Judge would be emailing the Home Office as a matter of urgency? Send this nasty fucker home
[Defence Counsel] Miss Gohil said: "He hasn't produced the knife in a menacing or pre-planned way.
"They had a scuffle and he then produced the knife; it's a different species of robbery."
Miss Gohil told the court: "He's a refugee from Iran.
"There's a risk his status might be rescinded, having spent a long period here and working so hard.
"To have hurt someone and frightened someone in this way he knows he's let himself down extremely badly."Yeah, I always take a knife on a punt with me, although of course I never have any intention of using it
Oh, he's let HIMSELF down, has he? How about the country which welcomed him as a refugee and helped him set up his business?
Glad to hear this twat got 5yrs from the Judge, and let's hope he gets sent packing upon completion of his sentence.
As for 'well he could have been white', well yes, he could. We have plenty of our own homemade scum unfortunately. But it's a sad fact that women in Iran often get treated like shit compared with Western democracies, so draw your own conclusions.
