Migrant who threatened to kill Farage broadcasts to his fans from prison | UK | News

A brazen Channel migrant who posted videos online from a small boat threatening to kill Nigel Farage has been illegally broadcasting videos to his fans from inside prison. Afghan Mada Pasa, 26, made his way to Britain last year and posted astonishing videos of his crossing while threatening to end the life of the Reform UK leader.

Pasa, real name Fayaz Khan, was charged with making threats to kill after the boasting footage of him abusing Mr Farage went viral last year. The illegal migrant is due to face a trial in October, adding another case to Britain’s already creaking backlogged legal system.

Now it’s emerged Pasa has been making more videos, this time from inside a UK prison, showing clips of himself feeding birds and banging on his cell door.

According to The Sun, Pasa has been posting the footage from inside HMP Wandsworth in TikToks to his thousands of followers online.

The inmate, who has a tattoo of a Kalashnikov rifle on his face, is also reported to have made the gun sign in the spate of videos posted this week. It’s understood TikTok has been asked to remove the videos.

A Prison Service spokesperson told Express.co.uk: “We are aware of these videos and are investigating them.

“Any offender caught using a phone or social media in prison will face punishment, including extra time behind bars.”

It’s understood TikTok has been asked to remove the videos.

Migration across the Channel remains top of Labour’s mounting inbox of issues after a year in office. Last week the number of people making the perilous crossing pushed past 20,000 for 2025, the earliest point this has happened in a calendar year since data started being recorded in 2018.

Sir Keir Starmer and French President Emmanuel Macron are set to discuss immigration at a summit later this week. The Prime Minister will also meet Mr Macron when he travels to the UK for a state visit.

The two leaders spoke on Saturday, and said they hoped to make “good progress” on the matter in their talks expected on Thursday.

Issuing a readout of their conversation, a Downing Street spokesperson said: “Turning to the UK-France summit on Thursday, they hoped to make good progress across a wide range of our joint priorities including migration, growth, defence and security.”

It comes after it was reported Keir Starmer’s flagship plan to tackle the small-boats crisis is in jeopardy following EU objections. The Prime Minister was set to announce a “one in, one out” agreement with France. But Whitehall sources have played down the prospect of a breakthrough this week following an intervention by the European Commission.
