Hard to fathom.

A Somali "refugee" who was found guilty of acts of piracy on sea and kidnapped and mistreated a ships crew for eight months will not be deported after all.

Him and his comrades kept the 22 strong crew captive in 2010 until they cashed-in $5.5 million.

He entered Germany in 2015 but got arrested on a false Italian passport. His fingerprints and phone read-out proved him part of the piracy of the “Marida Marguerite” cargo ship.

His asylum demand had been rejected on those criminal grounds.

The Somali appealed this sentence and now won.

As he was a minor back in the days of the kidnapping so he will not be prosecuted any further and can stay.
