TalkTV's Alex Phillips expresses her anger over reports that chemical attacker Abdul Ezedi was granted asylum to the UK due to his conversion to Christianity.
A raft of previously confidential documents disclose for the first time how the man police believe carried out a harrowing chemical attack earlier this year had been allowed to stay in the UK even though he had a criminal conviction.
The rarely-made-public immigration tribunal court papers, obtained by media organisations after legal representations, laid bare the lengths the Afghan national went to evidence his religious conversion from Islam.
The papers also suggested that some of those who supported him during the process were aware of his crimes, with him even signing an agreement to be effectively escorted during church services as a result.
Former Met detective Peter Bleksley joins the Cross Talk panel to discuss Abdul Ezedi’s asylum case and the threat to women’s safety.
