The sentencing hearing was told Kebatu wants to be deported after serving his time in prison, with his defence lawyer Molly Dyas adding it is a view he held “before the trial”. The judge said Kebatu “couldn’t have anticipated” his offending “would cause such a response from the public”. Judge Williams told Kebatu he agreed with the author of a pre-sentence report that he was “manipulative” when interviewed by a probation officer. 34 photos from Hanley asylum seeker hotel protest as police keep peace READ MORE:
