For the Appellant: Mr P Haywood, Counsel instructed by Forward & Yussuf Solicitors
The appellant is a citizen of Somalia born on 6 September 1981. He is said to have arrived in the UK on 15 September 1990.
On 8 May 2015 a decision was made to make a deportation order against the appellant under the automatic deportation provisions of s.32(5) of the UK Borders Act 2007 ("the 2007 Act"). That decision followed the appellant's conviction on 1 November 2007 for an offence of conspiracy to possess firearms. He received a sentence of 18 years' imprisonment on 26 November 2007, reduced on appeal to 14 years' imprisonment on 6 October 2009.
As well as the deportation decision, the respondent issued a certificate under s.72(2) of the Nationality, Immigration and Asylum Act 2002 ("the 2002 Act")(presumption of serious crime and danger to the community).
Furthermore, a decision was taken to cease the appellant's refugee status, with reference to Article 1C(5) of the Refugee Convention and paragraph 339A(v) of the Immigration Rules.
