An asylum seeker who allegedly recruited child soldiers has won an appeal to stay in Britain.
The Sri Lankan, who remains unnamed after he was granted anonymity by the Upper Tribunal of the Immigration and Asylum Chamber, faces claims he 'enlisted children under the age of 15' to separatist terrorist group Tamil Tigers.
The tribunal also heard he was working for the Tamils Rehabilitation Organisation [TRO] - a refugee charity - but was secretly supplying information.
The French Justice system previously ruled he should be denied asylum due to allegations that he was a war criminal.
And the Home Office agreed, refusing the man refugee status and attempting to deport him.
