Othman (Jordan) v Secretary of State for the Home Department

Court of Appeal

“A foreign national could not be deported on national security grounds to a state where he was at real risk of being tried on evidence obtained by torture because such an expulsion would contravene his right to a fair trial guaranteed by article 6 of the European Convention on Human Rights.”
