An Albanian criminal who has been deported from the UK twice is flaunting his wealth on social media after sneaking back into the country. The Home Office are now working to deport 29-year-old Dorian Puka, who was jailed twice and deported for burglaries, for a third time.
He was first jailed in 2016 after trying to break into a home in Twickenham. Puka served nine months behind bars before being deported in 2017. However, he returned within a year and carried out a spate of burglaries. He was caught in Surbiton, South-west London, before being jailed for three-and-a-half years. The Albanian was then deported in March 2020 but has since returned to the UK.
As reported by the Daily Mail, Puka has spent the last 18 months flaunting his wealth on social media. One video shows him feeding his dogs, Cobra and Mouse, wads of £20 and £50 notes, while other clips show Puka driving Ferraris and a £180,000 Lamborghini URUS V8.
He has also flaunted expensive clothes, restaurant dinners and Rolexes. Although his criminal record makes him eligible for deportation from Britain, the Home Office has been unable to do so as his asylum claim remains ongoing.
A spokesman for the Home Office said: “This individual is a known foreign national offender, and we are doing everything in our power to ensure they are removed as soon as possible. While there are ongoing legal proceedings, we cannot comment further.
“Nearly 10,000 foreign national offenders have been returned under this Government. We will continue to do everything we can to remove these criminals from our streets.”
Shabana Mahmood, the Home Secretary, is working to stop foreign criminals from using human rights laws to block their removal from the UK. The newly introduced Immigration and Asylum Bill is set to introduce stricter measures to curb legal loopholes and streamline the deportation process.
It alters Article 8 (the right to private and family life) of the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) and hopes to reduce the ability of criminals to exploit loopholes, such as family links, to stay in the UK.
