Algerian still in UK after SEVEN YEARS despite trying to poison Brit shoppers with his own faeces — after legal battle which cost £250,000

The sub heading from the Sun is typically blunt; CAN’T FLUSH POO-POISONER

AN Algerian jailed for trying to poison shoppers is still in the UK, seven years after first being told he would be deported.  Chemist Sahnoun Daifallah, 50, was jailed for nine years at Bristol Crown Court in 2009 for contaminating food, wine and books at four businesses in May 2008.

Daifallah squirted a mixture of urine and faeces from a 1.5 litre weed killer container – concealed within a laptop bag – at the Air Balloon Pub in Birdlip, before moving on to a Waterstones bookshop in Cirencester. Two days later, he targeted a Tesco store in Quedgley and a Morrisons in Abbeydale.

A search of his house in Gloucester revealed further plans to contaminate businesses in Bristol and Birmingham.

Daifallah came to Britain in 1999 and was granted refugee status two years later. He was told he would be deported in 2010 – but he has been in immigration custody since February 2013.

He did not launch an appeal for nearly three years as he appeared to have been forgotten about.

But that was followed by five more, including two judicial reviews. It is not clear why he is opposing deportation as no specific reason has been given. He has spent 54 months in immigration detention at a cost of about £155,000. His legal bills have added at least £100,000, making him one of the costliest foreign criminals still in the UK.

A Home Office spokeswoman told MailOnline: ‘This government puts the rights of the British public before those of criminals, and foreign nationals who abuse our hospitality by committing crimes in the UK should be in no doubt of our determination to deport them.’

Well-rated comments include: Why is he not being charged with terrorist offence for making an Useing biological weapons,because that’s what happened ! ? !

I cannot see why a person who was trying to poison our people has not yet been deported. Too PC , too soft,
