But judges ruled that the Jamaican should not be sent back to the Caribbean as this would amount to exile.

A multi-millionaire property mogul who installed CCTV cameras to monitor his wife and locked her indoors is now locked in a bitter and acrimonious court battle over their £6.9million fortune.
Fashion consultant Tracey Ratcliffe separated from Nicholas Ratcliffe in 2016 after 22 years of marriage, but they continued to live together at their £1.3m home.
Mr Ratcliffe, 61, then embarked on a campaign to force his 49-year-old wife out by using cameras to monitor her and locking the doors to restrict her movements, judges have heard.
In 2018, Mr Ratcliffe was ordered to leave the family home in affluent Bowdon, near Altrincham, and last year was ordered to split his £6.9million wealth with his wife.
The man - who cannot be named - came to the UK in 2007 claiming to be 14. But an assessment found he was 19. Three Court of Appeal judges said the assessment was done properly .
