Irish paedophile priest Finian Egan has been named as the child rapist the Administrative Appeals Tribunal (AAT) is fighting to keep in the country.

Former Immigration Minister Peter Dutton’s decision to cancel Egan’s Australian citizen was overturned by the AAT Deputy President Janine Stevenson.

Ms Stevenson also ordered Egan not be named and any evidence given in Egan’s case be suppressed.

“I will be pushing to get him deported as fast as possible.”
