Foreign criminals who are jailed for more than one year may be considered for deportation. In some cases, the foreign criminal may be given the right to stay in the UK if deportation breaches their human rights. A breach of human rights may include the right to private and family life if their family lives in the UK or right to life or to protection from torture if their lives could be put at risk by being deported to their own country.
This could cause a conflict of rights between the criminal and the UK public. For example, if a foreign criminal was granted the right to stay in the UK because their lives would be at risk by returning to their country, but they committed a crime that presented a threat to public safety, then this could be a conflict between the following rights:
Rights of Criminal - The right to life (Article 2, European Convention on Human Rights) and to be protected from torture (Article 3, ECHR).
Rights of UK Public - The right to protection of property and peaceful enjoyment of possessions (Article 1, Protocol 1, ECHR) if for example the individual has been convicted of burglary or theft.
