Stanislav Carpiuc deported after arson plot targeting Keir Starmer's properties

Stanislav Carpiuc, a Romanian national convicted of participating in an arson plot targeting properties linked to UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer, has been deported from the United Kingdom. Carpiuc was sentenced to two years in prison earlier this year for conspiracy to damage property by fire.

The attacks, which occurred in North London in May last year, involved setting fire to a vehicle previously owned by Starmer and the front doors of two houses, including one occupied by the Prime Minister’s sister-in-law. The Home Office confirmed the deportation, noting that Carpiuc is now subject to a ban on re-entering the UK.

Court proceedings revealed that the perpetrators were acting under the direction of an anonymous Telegram user known as ‘El Money,’ who is reportedly linked to a Russian online sabotage network. The mastermind allegedly offered £3,000 in cryptocurrency to Roman Lavrynovych, a Ukrainian national, if the arson attacks were filmed and reported in the news. Lavrynovych was sentenced to seven years in prison for his role in the attacks.
