A THUG who drove 100 miles to beat a man with a cricket stump cannot be deported as a judge ruled he is not a public threat.
Akshay Parsotam, 25, broke lockdown rules to carry out the gang attack in 2020.
He travelled from Leicester to Wembley, North West London, for the premeditated assault.
Portuguese-born Parsotam was convicted of violent disorder and GBH and jailed for 7½ years in February 2021.
On his release in 2024, the Home Office moved to deport him, issuing a removal order which he appealed.
An unnamed tribunal judge decided Parsotam was not a public threat — despite his release risk assessment ruling he had a high chance of re-offending.
The judge also said Parsotam was “likely to mature out of the lack of consequential thinking”.
His lawyers argued he had not lived in Portugal and does not speak the language so could not be rehabilitated there.
The Home Office has since won a new hearing because the judge had not sufficiently explained their judgment.
