Investigation launched after a 50 year old Albanian rapist who was released from Cloverhill prison today despite there being a deportation order for him.

Sources say prison bosses are scrambling for answers after the rapist, who was on remand in relation to the deportation order, was allowed to walk out the door of the prison.

The rapist was found guilty of raping a woman who he’d agreed to meet for a coffee in a Leinster town in the summer of 2017.

In a victim impact statement the woman said in the immediate aftermath of the rape she just wanted to die. “I had asked God to let me sleep and not wake up again”.

She said she no longer wanted to live in that town, which forced her into making her family homeless and moving to live in a hotel in another town.

The woman said she was mentally unwell and her children had no idea what was wrong with her.

She said she cleans herself a number of times a day. She described trying to clean herself by burning her skin and going on sunbeds in attempt to do this.

Albania has been one of the top countries of origin for asylum swindlers in Ireland in recent years with a typical rejection rate of 99%, yet Albanian was one of the languages which Minister Roderic O'Gorman launched his white paper to end Direct Provision in, committing to provide all asylum seekers from Albania with their own homes within four months of their arrival.

In 2022, Albanian Direct Provision resident and gangster Ndricim Qema was nabbed for facilitating people smuggling operations into Ireland. Arranging flights and forged Italian papers at a cost of €5,000 to €10,000, arrivals would dump documentation on coming to Dublin Airport and claim asylum.

Also in 2022, Minister Helen McEntee issued a blanket amnesty to 3,000 asylum seekers who were in the Direct Provision system for over two years in order to clear the system out for the launch of Roderic O'Gorman's White Paper under advice by Catherine Day, head of the government's expert advisory group on asylum.

In the UK, Albanian criminals make up the largest nationality in the prison system.

A High Court judge has criticised the Department of Justice for failing to inform a Kurdish asylum seeker from Iraq that he needed to register as a sex offender in Ireland when he moved to Ireland from the UK in 2021 after being convicted of a sexual offence four months after he arrived there in 2018.

The 23-year-old was one of two migrants who successfully argued that he should not be sent back to the UK due to the risk of being sent to Rwanda.

>Regardless of how many GBNews slots are offered, the Tory machine has zero interest in solving demographic replacement on either side of the border or in Britain. Just as in Carson’s time, Ireland is a chip in a wider internal power game by London elites happy to placate the Brexit-voting peasants with some cheap Daily Mail headlines as the country transforms into a Pakistani slum.

>Thinking that the Republic’s hopelessly anglophile political class is simply Brit bashing a la John McGuirk doesn’t cover the real issues at hand. London mandarins seriously considered moving millions of Hong Kongers in the 1980s to the six counties to kill two birds with one stone and won’t hesitate to direct tens of thousands of Afghans to Mount Street if it needs a polling boost.

Our government can be extremely efficient at moving hoards of foreign men out of an area when they want to.

The difference under a @NationalPartyIE government will be that we'll be putting them on airplanes instead of in hotels.

Calling her disastrous is understatement.

A minister with a 1.4% success rate at her job is a liability.
