Pakistani jihadist who plotted to carry out 7/7 bombings in Birmingham wants to be deported – but Home Office refuse over ‘human rights concerns’

A Pakistani jihadist cannot be deported despite renouncing his British citizenship because it would breach his human rights, official papers suggest.

Irfan Khalid was one of the leaders of a gang who plotted to carry out a 7/7-style mass terror attack in Birmingham and turn the city into a ‘little war zone’.

The conspiracy was smashed during Britain’s biggest anti-terror investigation, with Khalid sentenced to 18 years in prison in 2013.
