Police should release immigration information about charged suspects

Police forces should release information including immigration status about people who are charged with crimes, Nigel Farage has suggested. The Reform UK leader said that he 'absolutely' believes that information should be made available by police forces. It comes as Mr Farage and the youngest council leader in the country, George Finch, have claimed there has been a 'cover-up' of details about an alleged rape of a 12-year-old girl in Nuneaton. Two men who are reportedly Afghan asylum seekers have been charged in relation to the alleged incident in the Warwickshire town. Asked at a press conference on Monday whether the police should release the names, addresses and immigration status of people after they have been charged with an offence, Mr Farage said: 'What caused unrest on our streets after Southport last year was us not being told the status of the attacker. 'That led to crazy conspiracy theories spreading online.' Pushed later on whether the details should be published, Mr Farage said: 'I absolutely think that they should.' At the same press conference, Mr Farage linked a perceived lack of information from police about what happened in Nuneaton to what happened in Southport last July, telling a Westminster press conference that he wanted to discuss a 'cover-up that in many ways is reminiscent of what happened after the Southport killings last year'. He later told the event: 'It is not … in any way at all a contempt of court for the British public to know the identity of those who allegedly have committed serious crimes. 'I felt that in the wake of the Southport attacks, and I feel that ever more strongly today.' Ahmad Mulakhil, 23, was arrested on July 26 and charged the next day with rape, according to Warwickshire Police. He appeared at Coventry Magistrates' Court last Monday and has been remanded in custody. Mohammad Kabir, 23, was arrested in Nuneaton on Thursday and charged with kidnap, strangulation and aiding and abetting rape of a girl under 13, the force added. He appeared at Coventry Magistrates' Court on Saturday and has been remanded in custody. Warwickshire Police did not deny a Mail On Sunday report which said Mulakhil and Kabir are asylum seekers. In a statement, the force said that once someone is charged with an offence, they follow national guidance, which 'does not include sharing ethnicity or immigration status'. Mr Finch, the 19-year-old leader of Warwickshire County Council, told Monday's press conference that he was 'begging' for information about the two to be released in the wake of the charges. He said he had emailed the council's chief executive to say that he wished to speak to the police force and urge them to release information about the men's immigration status. Mr Finch also said he later had written a letter to Home Secretary Yvette Cooper and the chief constable of Warwickshire Police which called for the immediate release of the immigration status of the two. Mr Finch said he would be working to 'fight against' houses of multiple occupancy (HMOs) that are housing 'illegal immigrants' and also claimed that Reform UK need to 'change things' and are 'the last line of defence against the blob, the cover-ups'. In his letter to Ms Cooper, published on X on Sunday, Mr Finch claimed that a 'cover-up' of immigration status 'risks public disorder breaking out on the streets of Warwickshire'. 'Having my ear to the ground locally, it is clear that there is much appetite for protests to take place across the county,' the letter adds. Asked if police should release the ethnicity of people charged with offences, the Prime Minister's official spokesman said the police and courts were operationally independent but the principle was to be 'as transparent as possible'. He said: 'We've always said and continue to say that transparency is important. 'That is our position. For police up to central government, we should always be as transparent as possible when it comes to cases.' He added: 'This is clearly a deeply upsetting and distressing case which the public are right to feel shocked and angry about. In relation to this case, the individuals have been charged and we are now in a live investigation.'

Pontefract teenager Alfie Clark jailed after stabbing boy, 14

A teenager who stabbed a boy he had previously called a "dirty little immigrant" has been jailed. Alfie Clark was walking his dog with his mother in Pontefract on 25 May when he attacked the 14-year-old, who was out celebrating his 13-year-old girlfriend's birthday. Eighteen-year-old Clark, of Eastbourne Terrace, Pontefract, had also previously threatened to kill the boy on social media and told him he would "break his knees in front of his family", Leeds Crown Court heard. He pleaded guilty to wounding with intent and was sentenced to four years and three months at the same court on Monday. He was jailed for 21 months, to run concurrently, after admitting possession of a bladed article. Clark was also handed a 10-year restraining order banning him from contacting the victim or the victim's girlfriend. 'Without warning' The court heard Clark and the victim fell out on social media after Clark made comments "of a sexual nature" about the victim's girlfriend and the victim told Clark to "stop saying weird stuff". The social media conversation escalated, with other youngsters getting involved, and it culminated in Clark boasting he was going to "undig a gun" to kill the victim with and using a racial slur against him. Anthony Moore, prosecuting, said in the social media conversation leading up to the attack, Clark wrote, among other things: 'I will kill him, the dirty little immigrant'.The court was told that on the evening of the attack, Clark and his mother came across the victim and his girlfriend by chance and Clark "immediately and without warning" pulled out a knife and stabbed the victim three times - twice in the ribs and once on the arm. After the attack, all four kept walking and the victim said he could hear laughing behind him. He returned home where an ambulance was called and he was taken to hospital, where he required surgery due to a blood clot. In an impact statement read out in court, the victim said he now suffered from anxiety, had physical and emotional scars and "no longer trusts adults". 'Life or death results' Passing sentence, Judge Robin Mairs said: "This case highlights the danger of young men carrying knives, which they invariably produce and use. "This can have catastrophic life or death results. It is sheer luck this case did not prove to be fatal."There was a significant degree of planning and you walked away unconcerned - it was not a spur of the moment decision." He said aggravating factors included that the attack was racially motivated, the victim was four years younger and, therefore, "vulnerable" and the fact it also happened in front of a child - the victim's girlfriend. Clark's age and "immaturity" were the only reasons the sentence was not longer, Judge Mairs added.
