Tory ex-minister calls for review of how chemical assault suspect gained asylum
Briefly

It appears, from what little we know of this case, that this is an individual whose asylum or humanitarian protection in the UK was granted by a tribunal, so probably by a judge rather than Home Office officials, despite the fact that he had been convicted of a sexual offence and on the basis of evidence which, we shall have to see, may well be spurious or insubstantial, such as this suggestion that he had converted to Christianity. I think we need to investigate the particular circumstances.
