A notorious grooming gang ringleader who the Prime Minister helped put in jail cannot be deported back to Pakistan after winning a human rights battle.
As Director of Public Prosecutions between 2008 and 2013 - before entering politics - Sir Keir Starmer insists he tackled Asian child abuse rings 'head on'.
Among those jailed was Abdul Aziz, known as 'The Master' by fellow members of the infamous Rochdale grooming gang locked up for a total of 77 years in 2012.
They were brought to justice after the future PM appointed Nazir Afzal as chief crown prosecutor for North West England.
After reviewing the file, in 2011 Mr Afzal overturned the original Crown Prosecution Service decision not to put the men on trial on the grounds that the main victim was 'unreliable'.
