The question

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what the immigration status was for Mohamed Lidow at the time he committed the manslaughter and rape of Natalie Shotter.

Answered by Dame Angela Eagle

My thoughts are with the victims of these appalling crimes and their families, and I applaud the work of the police forces who brought perpetrators for these crimes to justice.

The Honourable Member will understand that, even in such appalling cases, the personal data of the perpetrators, including immigration and citizenship status, is exempt from release if disclosure would contravene any of the data protection principles in Article 5(1) of the UK General Data Protection Regulation and section 34(1) of the Data Protection Act 2018.
