Sex offender deported

A PAKISTANI national convicted of child sex offences in Britain has been deported, the Home Office said yesterday.

Zulfqar Hussain, 50, was jailed in August 2007 after admitting sexual activity with a minor, detaining a child without lawful authority and possession of drugs with intent to supply.

He was sentenced to five years and eight months by a judge at Preston Crown Court and served with a deportation order in December 2009. He was also given a sexual offences prevention order for life.
