Mohmoudi has also previously racked up five criminal convictions for assault and criminal damage in Germany, and served 10 months in jail for piloting the small boat which took him to Britain’s shores.
David Harounoff, defending, said the 36-year-old Iranian, had been targeted for protesting against the Islamic regime in his home country.
