A mother who stabbed her baby daughter with a kitchen knife has won the right to stay in Britain – so she can stay in touch with the girl she tried to kill.
The woman was jailed for five years for attempting to murder her daughter when the girl was just eight months old.
After completing her jail sentence she was due to be deported to her home country of Bangladesh.
'An appallingly difficult case': A tribunal has ruled that a woman who stabbed her baby girl with a kitchen knife will not be deported because that would separate her from her child (photo posed by models)
But the family courts gave her the right to see her daughter under tight supervision for an hour three times a year – and she has now won the right to stay in Britain permanently.
A judge ruled it would be ‘very cruel’ to stop her from seeing the child.
She won her case using Article 8 of the European Convention on Human Rights – the right to a private and family life.
