An illegal Iraqi migrant who fled his country over his part in an alleged exam fraud has avoided deportation after claiming a people smuggler threw away his ID and phone.
The man fled Iraq after being threatened with arrest for an alleged exam fraud when he was caught on CCTV delivering test papers to an address a day before students were due to sit for the qualification.
He claimed that an “agent” who facilitated his passage to the UK had not only thrown away his ID documents but also made him get rid of his phone, on which he had his family’s numbers.
