Yaqub Ahmed was convicted of gang rape. He was filmed complaining as officials and police attempted to deport himSOLO SYNDICATION
An airline passenger whose deportation was halted after protests by holidaymakers was revealed to be a convicted gang rapist yesterday.
Yaqub Ahmed was on a flight waiting to take off from Heathrow to Istanbul last week when fellow sympathetic passengers intervened, in the latest action by the public to halt deportations.
He was being expelled after having been convicted of being part of a gang of four men who raped a 16-year-old stranger who had become separated from her friends during a night out in London’s Leicester Square.
All four, aged 18 to 20, were caught after neighbours heard the girl’s screams at a flat in Crouch End, north London, in August 2007 and were convicted despite pleading not guilty.

艾哈邁德（小圖）最後被帶下飛機，避過遣返。
一名在英國犯下強姦罪的索馬里裔難民，早前被英國政府驅逐出境，鎖上手銬送上客機，但機上乘客見狀，竟以為是將受政治逼害流亡的難民遣返，紛紛起哄施壓，最後內政部官員因眾怒難犯，將犯人帶下機。受害女子斥責乘客好心做壞事，違背公義：「試着聽聽我的呼叫！」
涉案犯人艾哈邁德（Yaqub Ahmed）去年10月被鎖上手銬，押上一架飛往土耳其的客機。從一段網上流傳的片段可見，不知情的乘客見艾哈邁德被鎖上手銬，頓起同情心，紛紛拿起手機拍攝，又向要負責押送他的內政部官員施壓，有人不斷大叫：「把他帶落機！」期間被控制住的艾哈邁德也發出慘叫聲，一名乘客回過頭來向其他乘客覆述：「他說他要和家人分離。」
群情此時更加洶湧，官員試圖與乘客交涉不果，他們最後把艾哈邁德押落機。有乘客見狀，竟直呼：「你自由了！」事後艾哈邁德被帶回羈押在英國移民部的遣送中心，5個月間至少再花費英國納稅人1.8萬鎊（約18.4萬港元）。
艾哈邁德涉及的強姦案發生在2007年，受害人漢娜（化名）當時只有16歲，她外出時與朋友失散，艾哈邁德的同黨謊稱漢娜的朋友與他的朋友在一起，誘騙她到倫敦北部一處住所，與另外3人輪姦她。最後有鄰居聽到她的尖叫後報警，得以被救，艾哈邁德與同黨被拘捕，被判監8年至9年。他們出獄後，基於不同原因一直沒被逐出境，其中一人還去了敍利亞為回教極端組織「伊斯蘭國」（IS）作戰，並相信已在2013年死亡。
漢娜在案發後患上創傷後壓力症候群（PTSD），現年27歲的她已為人母，她近日接受英國報章訪問時，直斥乘客所為：「你們認為他叫得很慘？試試聽聽我的呼叫吧！你們怎可以維護強姦犯？怎可以插手？他被鎖上手銬驅逐離國家，你們是些甚麼人竟去干預司法……他們見到有人被鎖上手銬，就假設是有不公義的事發生。」她又諷刺地說：「算你們不知道發生甚麼事，我希望你們為自己感到驕傲，因為你們阻止了一件我期待已久、能令我感到安全一點的事。」
艾哈邁德未能被遣送離境，漢娜心理壓力沉重，她因為害怕再次見到向他施暴的人而不敢離家太遠，去年11月更辭去工作，離開了倫敦，更打算離開英國。
英國內政部有消息人士表示，政府正在計劃將艾哈邁德遣送離境，但他看來打開作新一輪上訴。艾哈邁德在上月中曾在移民審裁處出庭，但當局並沒公布該次聆訊的結果。

Gang rape victim’s trauma after Heathrow passengers stop attacker’s deportation

A gang rape victim has described the moment holidaymakers on a Heathrow plane stopped her attacker from being deported.
The mother, 27, has grappled with PTSD since she was raped by four men at the age of 16, and is now terrified to go out in public after watching her attacker walk free over a decade later.
One of them, Yaqub Ahmed, a refugee from Somalia, was due to be deported last October, before passengers on a flight to Turkey intervened unaware of his crime.
Yaqub Ahmed was due to be deported but was taken off a flight to Turkey after passengers intervened
Footage of Ahmed, 29, which was shared widely across social media, showed travellers demanding his release and shouting ‘they’re separating him from his family’.
When four Home Office officials escorted Ahmed off the plane, one said: ‘You’re free man!’

Hannah – not her real name – told the Mail on Sunday her life has been ruined since she was attacked by the men in a north London flat in 2007.
She told the paper: ‘How could you defend a rapist? How could you intervene? He was in handcuffs, he was being taken out of the country… who are you people to interfere with justice?
‘Fair enough you didn’t know the situation, but now I hope you feel proud of yourselves because you stopped something that I have waited for for so long: something that made me feel that little bit safer.’
The then teenager was attacked by the men after becoming separated from friends – who had Hannah’s phone and bus pass – on a night out in Leicester Square.
Adnan Mohamud approached her claiming her friend had gone back to his Crouch End flat with one of his friends.
But when she arrived, her friend wasn’t there.
Ondogo Ahmed was given an eight-year prison term but is believed to have died having fled to Syria to fight for the Islamic State
She said: ‘They said she had gone to the shop and that she was coming back. They did what they did. They held me down. They took turns.’
Eventually she managed to run free, before a neighbour heard her scream and called the police who arrested the men at the scene.
Ahmed, then 19 and living in Clerkenwell, North London; Adnan Mohamud, 19, who lived in the flat where the rape took place; and Adnan Barud, 21, from Holloway, North London, were each jailed for nine years for planning and carrying out the rape.

A fourth man, Ondogo Ahmed, 19, also of Holloway, received eight years for conspiracy to rape. He is believed to have died after fleeing to Syria to fight for the Islamic State group in 2013.
Mohamud and Barud have since been released from prison.

Ahmed has been in an Immigration Removal Centre for the last five months, which is believed to have so far cost taxpayers more than £18,000.
His failed deportation has seen Hannah struggle so severely with anxiety – fearing she will see her attackers – she has been unable to work since November and has left London.
Hannah didn’t know Ahmed was still in the country until she spotted her attacked in the video and said she should’ve been warned ‘so I didn’t have to find out in the way that I did’.
Home Office sources say the Government is planning to deport Ahmed, but he appears to have launched another appeal, according to the Mail on Sunday.
He was due to appear before an immigration tribunal in Nottingham on March 14 but it is believed the Home Office and the tribunal last week did not reveal the outcome of the hearing.

How could 'bleeding heart' plane passengers stop my rapist being deported? Young mum whose 'screaming' Somali attacker was kept in the UK by Heathrow mutiny reveals her fury at their intervention

The 27-year-old mother sitting beside me on a suburban park bench is trembling with a mixture of fear and rage. She can barely suppress her anger as she recalls the moment she watched a video of a refugee being escorted from an aircraft at Heathrow after a mutiny by passengers halted his deportation.
As The Mail on Sunday revealed last year, that man was Yaqub Ahmed, a Somalian who a decade earlier had been convicted and jailed with three others for a sickening gang rape.
Today his victim breaks her silence and, in an exclusive interview, condemns the holidaymakers who stepped in to defend him, ignorant of the horrifying attack that ripped her life apart.
In the video, filmed by a passenger, Ahmed, 29, is seen screaming as a group of people on board bellow at officials to ‘take him off the plane!’
For Hannah (not her real name), those pantomime-style cries were as nothing compared to her terrified screams as she fought for her life during Ahmed’s gang’s attack in a dingy flat in North London in August 2007 when she was just 16.
‘You think that was a bad scream? Try hearing the screams that I made,’ says Hannah in a powerful message to the ‘bleeding heart’ passengers who decided to intervene in Ahmed’s deportation.
And she asks them: ‘How could you defend a rapist? How could you intervene? He was in handcuffs, he was being taken out of the country… who are you people to interfere with justice?
