The government does not want to be accused of withholding data that might have criminal implications. The Up-shot of this fire-fighting approach (the immigration process must be protected at all costs) is that the existence of Mr Hadi Alodid appears to begin with him assuming the status of an “asylum-seeker” and leaving his native Sudan. He flew from France to the Republic of Ireland – and then crossed into Northern Ireland from there (I assume illegally) – where he was given permission to remain for five-years. This is ironic as the Irish border is heavily patrolled. Here is the asymmetric issue – whereas we know a considerable amount about the past of the victim – Mr Stephen Ogilvie (who nearly had his head cut-off) – we know virtually nothing about the past of Mr Hadi Alodid or his life in Sudan – the man who took a stout kitchen knife and attempted to commit a murder typical of those found within Islamic-extremism. Instead, we are told, there is “nothing terroristic” about the actions of Mr Hadi Alodid – so there you have it. His religious affiliation is ignored. We can all give-up worrying and go home pondering why it is that Mr Stephen Ogilvie is “so unlucky” in life. I am reminded of the film the “Wizard of Oz” – where the false Wizard instructs his audience to “Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain” – because if you do, then you will understand exactly what is going on!
