Algerian migrant who threatened former partner and kids can remain in the UK because of 'his right to a family life'

A migrant from Algeria who threatened to torch his two daughters and ex-girlfriend cannot be thrown out of Britain - because of his 'right to a family life'. 

The Algerian national, who cannot be named for legal reasons, was ruled a danger to his daughters, now five and seven, by social workers. A Child Protection Plan even forbids him from living with them in the West Midlands. 

The 42-year-old was imprisoned for 15 months in 2012 after Wolverhampton Crown Court heard he vowed to burn down his house with his children and their Angolan mother inside. 

A case at the immigration and asylum Upper Tribunal chamber (pictured) heard that the Algerian migrant should be allowed to remain in the UK - despite threatening to kill his former girlfriend and children 

But despite that, the migrant has won the right to remain in the UK.
