Controversy Over Clapham Attacker's Burial and Asylum Claim Raises Questions

Abdul Ezedi's Muslim burial despite Christian conversion claim and scrutiny over his UK asylum status highlight systemic issues.

Abdul Ezedi, the Clapham chemical attacker, was given a Muslim burial despite claims of converting to Christianity, sparking controversy.
Home Secretary James Cleverly faces scrutiny over how Ezedi was allowed to remain in the UK despite being a convicted sex offender and his asylum claim issues.
Documents reveal Ezedi was granted asylum based on his claimed Christian conversion, despite failing basic questions about the religion.
Criticism arises over the role of 'credulous clerics' and 'lefty lawyers' in asylum cases, with government officials warning of potential damage to the asylum system's integrity.
The case has led to calls for a reform of the asylum system, including the Safety of Rwanda Bill aiming to prevent similar cases.
