A NIGERIAN fraudster who duped women out of £186,000 has avoided deportation — because of a lack of healthcare for his family back home.
Emmanuel Jack, 35, was jailed for three years in 2014 after he tricked six women he met on dating websites.
He convinced them to send cash as he posed as an architect named John Creed, John Windsor or Johnnie Carlo Rissi.
Police at the time said he and a co-offender preyed on lonely women. In 2022 the Home Office revoked his British citizenship and said he would be returned to Nigeria, where he had left aged ten with his parents.
He fought the decision and now the Immigration and Asylum tribunal in London has found deportation would be too harsh on his British wife and two children, who suffer complicated medical issues.
He also provides care for his wife’s 16 year old daughter, who wrote that “the family would fall apart without him”.
It was highly likely the younger children would suffer an emotional and psychological impact from his removal, it was said.
The judges said: “We have found that [the wife and two children] are all receiving long term care for acute medical conditions.
“For each of them that care involves regular review from consultants, detailed ongoing investigations and a significant treatment regime.
“Moving to Nigeria would significantly disrupt that care, frustrate ongoing investigations and end the consistency of care that they have each been receiving to date. “
