Metropolitan Police Commisisoner v Ahsan [2015] EWHC 2354 (Admin), [2015] All ER (D) 54 (Aug)
In the first case in which an application for a notification order under the Counter-Terrorism Act 2008 had been contested in respect of a person convicted outside the UK of a corresponding foreign offence, the Administrative Court refused the order. Given the US judge’s finding that the defendant did not pose a threat, the Metropolitan Police Commissioner had not established that interference with the defendant’s rights under Art 8 of the European Convention on Human Rights had been justified.
