Griffin arrested in UK
Main news in UK today is Nick Griffin's arrest. He completed his sentence in Cambodia and flew back to the UK. CEOPs had him arrested on landing at Heathrow due to prior convictions in Wales. Another paedo put away for good.
Unfortunately this doesn't help my chances of finding work in the UK. Given that I left the UK a decade ago to help vulnerable children, I can't get a job with children now because I can't prove that I was never a convicted paedophile in Cambodia. I asked the embassy to verify that they have no record of me being arrested but they say they don't have such records.

wow!
It is nearly impossible to prove a negative.
You need a police report from Cambo, get the missus onto this one, should only cost a couple of hundred to say you have not been convicted.
Seriously you should take this one through the court system; this is bullshit.

In the UK, yes. I was told before I left Cambodia that there is no formal criminal conviction check for foreigners, only Cambodian citizens. The embassy confirmed this.Sok Poupe wrote:Guilty until proven innocent?
Is that where we're headed?

That will undoubtedly get in the way of former residents of Cambodia obtaining visas for a number countries (for at least five years).andyinasia wrote:there is no formal criminal conviction check for foreigners, only Cambodian citizens. The embassy confirmed this.
It would almost be worth purchasing citizenship in order to get that certification (depending upon your field of work, of course).

tell them that you lied about being in Cambodia. You were actually kidnapped by Somali pirates and only recently released. Or perhaps you were in jail for tax fraud. That should indicate that you are really the kind of felon that is acceptable these days.

For anyone who forgot (Nick) Griffin... Here's the story.
And some download links for the America's Most Wanted program which included his bust.

I wasn't paying full attention but it looks like he wasn't extradited. He got his sentence in Cambodia cut short (details are sketchy) and flew back to the UK of his own accord, apparently oblivious of the authorities having evidence of kiddie-fiddling in Wales before he relocated to Cambodia.BirdBrain wrote:So did he only get a year or was it some kind of deal to get him serving time in the UK?

Nor does the fact that the country is in a deep recession and millions are unemployed. I'd advise anyone to do their homework before relocating to such a place.andyinasia wrote: Unfortunately this doesn't help my chances of finding work in the UK.
Romantic Cambodia is dead and gone. It's with McKinley in the grave.

Er, thanks Lord Lucan
Fact is, there are jobs for me if I have an enhanced CRB.
