Kweku Adoboli At Risk Of Deportation

Former UBS trader Kweku Adoboli could be detained by the Home Office next week and deported, after having been denied permission for a judicial review of his case.

Mr Adoboli, known for his role in Britain's biggest ever fraud which saw him lose UBS $2.3bn (£1.8bn) through unauthorised trades and handed a seven-year sentence, has been battling attempts to have him deported to Ghana, where he was born, for years.

He was released from prison in 2015, after having served half of his sentence.

The 38-year-old has not lived in Ghana since he was four, and has been living in the UK since he was 12 years old. However, under UK immigration law, foreign nationals can be subject to automatic deportation.
