Albanian drug offender who grew 200 cannabis plants avoids deportation under ECHR because his girlfriend does not speak his language – Allah's Willing Executioners
Armando Iberhasaj was initially arrested in October 2019 | DERBYSHIRE POLICE
A man who was jailed for growing over 200 cannabis plants has avoided being deported after it was ruled his removal would be “harsh” on his partner.
Armando Iberhasaj was handed a four-month prison sentence after being discovered at a property in Springfield Crescent, Bolsover, on October 15, 2019.
Iberhasaj claimed his deportation would breach his rights to a family life with his partner under the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR).
He claimed this outweighed his criminal threat to Britain, given that he had been jailed for less than a year, the current threshold above which foreign offenders face automatic deportation.
Iberhasaj was found at the Derbyshire property alongside another male, who said they had only been at the property for a matter of days.
They claimed they were being paid to water and feed the crops, which were already in various stages of growth.
