Britain is home to more than 750 foreign criminals including killers and rapists who have gone on the run after being granted bail before they could be deported, new figures reveal.
The offenders were due to be deported at the end of their prison sentences but delays meant they were released onto Britain’s streets under human rights laws, then disappeared.
Among the 752 criminals from overseas who remain on the loose in Britain, at least one was guilty of conspiracy to murder while others had committed manslaughter, according to the Home Office.
The figures, released after a Freedom of Information request by the Daily Mail, revealed there were also 11 rapists, several child abusers and arsonists, six burglars, 26 robbers and 76 drug dealers at large.
Human rights roles mean foreign offenders whose deportation hits difficulties, due to complications such as obtaining travel documents or overcoming legal challenges, cannot be locked up indefinitely.
