@ s. grima. In this case it should be deportation, if he is not conveniently married to a Maltese, because he is not european.

(sigh) you are not deported because you are european or not, but only if deportation is one of the punishments contemplated by law for the crime you are found guilty of.

because deportation is not one of the punishments contemplated for this crime.

So did the judge establish if this guy is working here legally, on holiday, or what exactly, since he is not an EU citizen and he is guilty of aiding others in avoiding deportation?

@ Sean Grima,
East Europe is part of a continent, Syria is only a country.
If we add the other 10,000 Africans plus all these North Africans I,m sure that the ratio would probably be 1 to 100.
