An Albanian burglar who was deported twice but since returned to the UK has mocked the Home Office by driving a Rolls-Royce around London.
Dorian Puka, 28, posted videos on TikTok of himself driving around the capital in the £300,000 vehicle. He then parked the car on double yellow lines and posed for a picture in front of it.
The 28-year-old was previously deported twice for burglaries, though returned to the UK in December 2020.
He has since claimed asylum which means the Home Office is powerless to deport him again. He can only be removed when his case has been fully considered - a process that could take years due to the backlog of immigration tribunal appeals.
While he evades deportation, the burglar has flaunted his lifestyle on social media, with his TikTok and Instagram accounts showcasing images of multiple Rolex watches and expensive cars.
Last month, he shared footage of himself smoking a shisha pipe alongside a belly dancer on New Year's Eve, before ending his three-minute social media clip with an image of Big Ben and Parliament.
The convicted criminal included the message: “Happy New Year Everyone!... Wish the best for all!”
Puka also mocked Reform UK leader Nigel Farage last year, by sharing a photo of himself having dinner with a photoshopped image of the Clacton MP giving a thumbs up.

Farage responded by describing Puka as a “proper wrong'un” who was “walking all over” British authorities.
Puka was first jailed for nine months in 2016, before being deported the year after for attempting to break into a property which the owner spotted via webcam whilst on holiday in France.
However, within a year, he had managed to return to the UK after evading border controls. He then carried out a string of burglaries across London.
He was finally caught after a watch he had stolen was spotted by plain clothes officers in Surbiton, south-west London, which resulted in a three-and-a-half-year sentence and second deportation in March 2020.
While in prison, Puka used a smuggled mobile phone to post Instagram pictures of himself with an organised crime group leader who was serving 12 years for cocaine supply and money laundering.
By December 2020, after travelling through several European countries, he re-entered Britain.
He has since lodged an asylum application and is waiting for an immigration tribunal to decide on his claim.
A Home Office spokesman said: “Foreign nationals who commit crimes should be in no doubt that the law will be enforced. Mr Puka has been deported by the UK before. It is UK law that we cannot deport individuals where there are claims or representations still awaiting decision.”
