A convicted sex offender who was granted asylum in the UK after his third request was being hunted Friday for a chemical attack injuring several people, including a blinded mom and her young daughters — with a wanted poster showing the suspect’s face also gruesomely disfigured.

Abdul Shakoor Ezedi, 35, a pizzeria worker who arrived from Afghanistan in 2016, allegedly injured at least a dozen people by throwing an alkaline substance at them Wednesday night, the BBC reported.

A 31-year-old woman was blinded and her two daughters, ages 3 and 8, were injured in the “horrific” attack in upscale Clapham in south London, the Metropolitan Police said.

Three other women and one man who came to their aid suffered minor burns and five cops were also hurt.

Ezedi was spotted on surveillance footage across the Thames in North London about an hour after the 7:30 p.m. attack, buying a bottle of water, police said

...

Ezedi was twice turned down for asylum before being granted leave to remain in 2022, despite having been convicted of sexual assault and exposure in 2018,

...

Ezedi had claimed his life would be in danger if he was returned to Afghanistan.

....

Prime Minister Rishi Sunak’s spokesman declined to comment on the Ezedi’s immigration status during a continuing police investigation.

Ezedi had claimed his life would be in danger if he was returned to Afghanistan.

Sounds like it SHOULD have been in danger, regardless of where he was located. The people who allow this to happen; is it suicide if you harm others at the same time you try to destroy yourself?

The UK must be short on sex offenders if they have to start importing them from Afghanistan.

Abdul Shake Yobudi can’t go back to Afghanistan because they shoot pizzeria workers there on sight.

Liberals. Idiots. Killers of peace, prosperity and liberty. Supporters of criminals. Because “nice” means something completely foreign to them.

“...they shoot pizzeria workers there on sight.”


No, but Afghans do take a personal interest in seeing justice, at least their concept of justice being done. Abdul might have messed with Afghan women before he blessed the U.K. with his presence which means he might well be in fear for his life should he return.

The U.K. no longer has a death penalty, and if they won’t deport him, they should at least keep him in one of H.M. Prisons for the rest of his life.
