Refugee who stabbed youth footballer Kiyan Prince to death has been deported to Somalia
A SOMALIAN refugee who stabbed youth footballer Kiyan Prince to death outside a school has been deported. Hannad Hasan was given sanctuary in 2001 after fleeing the war-torn African nation. 2 But just five years later, the thug teen killed QPR youth player Kiyan, 15, after he tried to break up a fight. Hasan, 17, got Kiyan in a headlock and stabbed him through the heart with a penknife in a May 2006 murder in Edgware, north-west London, which horrified Britain. Hasan was handed a minimum of 13-years behind bars and was denied parole last year. The now 35-year-old was flown to Somalia in October 2024. Queens Park Rangers called their ground the Kiyan Prince Foundation Stadium in 2019 after a fan vote over naming rights. The West London championship club reverted to their Loftus Road name three years later. When Hasan was jailed, Judge Paul Worsley said: 'Taking the life of another is always a terrible thing - taking the life of a talented, popular 15-year-old schoolboy who was known to you and who had done you no wrong and had everything to live for defies description.' After the verdict, Mr Prince said the family was 'ecstatic, over the moon' at the sentence. A Home Office spokesperson said: 'Foreign nationals who commit crime should be in no doubt that we will do everything to make sure they are not free to roam Britain's streets, including removing them from the UK at the earliest possible opportunity. 'Since the election we've removed 4,436 foreign criminals, a 14% increase on the same period 12 months prior.' Not-for-profit KPF is committed to using Kiyan's legacy to combat knife crime and other forms of youth violence. 2

Driver who crashed into bollard hit with £100 parking fine while waiting for help
A DRIVER who wrapped his car around a bollard was hit with a £100 parking fine while waiting for help. Jeremy Rabinovitch was issued with the penalty notice for incorrect parking after leaving his Hyundai i10 hatchback wedged on the concrete pillar. 4 4 4 He had been sitting in the car for six hours waiting for a tow truck when the motor was caught on camera outside a bay. Jeremy, 48, said: 'Thankfully, I was unhurt, but there is no way they knew that. 'The thing that shocked me was the inhumanity of it. 'Did it ever occur to them to ask if I was OK?' The NHS apprentice manager hit the post when he was caught in the glare of another vehicle in a commuter car park near Edgware Tube Station, North London, at 6am on April 9. Despite doing only 5mph, dad-of-two Jeremy says the post proved too firmly embedded to free his car and he had to wait for help. It meant Jeremy missed an important meeting with his team, which sources apprentices for St Guy's and St George's hospital. And he was angered when he received the penalty notice about a week later. Jeremy, from Borehamwood, Herts, appealed the charge and received a brusque, three- sentence letter informing him he no longer needed to pay. He said: 'I was livid when I received that letter. My car gets ticketed every morning but I can't park anywhere else - city makes thousands in fees & I can't get a permit "It was just robotic, no apology, nothing. What has the world come to?' Jeremy remains annoyed neither the parking enforcement company nor passers-by showed him any understanding. He said: 'I could have been concussed, anything. 'Two people in six hours stopped to check if I was OK, out of the hundreds that slowed to ogle the scene. A couple even laughed.' UK Parking Control, which issued the fine, was asked to comment. 4
