"I was denied residence in the UK because the Home Office considered me a threat because of my race."

A former NHS employee with no criminal record has been denied the right to remain in the UK on what he sees as a 'threat to national security'.

Farrukh Sair, from Manchester, says his license doesn't even make sense, but his numerous applications for permanent residency have been denied by the Home Office over the past decade. 5}

The 42-year-old, who is battling kidney cancer, had £800 in his account for three consecutive months while still a student, citing the Home Office as the reason for his rejection of his application as it continued to change. He states that he was initially rejected because he didn't have one.

After The Mirror contacted the Ministry of Home Affairs, the Ministry made a dramatic turnaround and granted indefinite leave to remain in Farrukh. So he is currently a UK permanent resident

Father -of-two from Pakistan said: this.

``I think this was the great injustice that the Home Office now recognizes. I didn't know how my wife and children would cope, and now that sword has been taken away." He is battling cancer.

He said: "Just last month. , I was diagnosed with cancer.I saw a doctor and he recommended an operation.Therefore, I would need to have part or all of my kidney removed. , I spoke of my condition, but given that I had spent 19 years in this country, I did not have to prove that it was not a short period, not a pity.

"I am In 19 years I have never had a civil or criminal conviction.My driver's license doesn't even matter.It's because of the color of my skin.I will never get justice."

Farrukh, who was previously employed as an IT worker in the NHS, felt that countries such as France were grateful to those who supported them by granting them swift citizenship during the pandemic. He says he is. The UK 'returned' him to Pakistan.

He said:

``They should think about my contribution during the pandemic. I was an NHS engineer I have contributed a lot to this country I am here now with your friends and family I have a family life

Farouk came to the UK on a student visa in 2009 and studied business administration at the University of Manchester.

However, when he applied for a post-study work visa, his application was rejected on the grounds that he had not had at least £800 in his account for three months.

"I wasn't allowed to work full time at that time," he said.

"So I thought he could only work 20 hours. He had just finished his studies, so the money seemed a little too much at the time.

" Requirement[ having £800]. introduced for the first time.

But he found in 2010 that the Home Office's request was illegal and was never presented to parliament.

Over the past decade, Farrukh has gone back and forth with the Home Office, which has continually changed the reasons for rejecting his application.

In 2015, Farouk said the Home Office would refuse a permanent settlement because of his "character or affiliation, or the fact that he represents a threat to national security."
