Officials say man in hiding who helped prosecute terrorists does not meet relocation criteria, despite high court ruling in his favour

Photograph: Xinhua/Rex/ShutterstockPhotograph: Xinhua/Rex/ShutterstockA senior judge who prosecuted terrorists and is now in hiding infeels “heartbroken, abandoned and backstabbed” by the British government for refusing to bring him to safety despite a high court ruling in his favour.

The judge faces having to make a highly dangerous journey to Pakistan to a UK visa-processing centre to get his biometrics done for a visa application. However, if the UK government then refuses the visa, he could be deported from Pakistan back to Afghanistan and placed directly in the hands of the Taliban.

The former independent reviewers of terrorism legislation Lord Carlile and Lord Anderson wrote to the Home Office on 15 April, urging them to reconsider their decision not to allow the judge to come to the UK.
