AN illegal immigrant raped a girl of 12 and assaulted her friend aged 14 after the Home Office failed to deport him.
Mohammed Murad, 29, is now serving seven years after he plied the young runaways with booze and drugs, then attacked them as they slept.
The Bangladeshi restaurant worker's visa had run out - but he simply ignored deportation papers and was never picked up.
Police only learnt about the bid to kick him out during the court case.
Local Tory MP Henry Bellingham yesterday said he would write to Home Secretary John Reid over the fiasco and ask questions in Parliament.
He stormed: "Confidence in the Immigration Service is in meltdown.
"We're not talking about stealing a handbag here. He's guilty of some of the worst crimes known to man."
Murad lured the vulnerable girls to his flat in King's Lynn, Norfolk, in May last year with promises of food.
But he gave them alcohol and pot and made them strip for card games.
When they returned the next day, he again gave them drink and drugs and attacked them when they fell asleep.
Murad also made them perform sex acts on him and took lewd photos.
The pervert was convicted of rape, two counts of attempted rape and 12 other sex offences.
Judge Alasdair Darroch recommended he be deported after half his term and said at Norwich crown court: "It was your business to control yourself, not destroy their lives." The Home Office would not say how long he was here illegally, adding: "We can't give details of an individual's case."
