Fayaz Husseini, who has an AK-47 tattooed on his face, made a gun gesture with his fingers on camera and boasted he was coming to England to 'pop, pop, pop' the Reform leader - which saw him jailed for five years this week.
Now The Daily Mail has learned that Husseini, 31, was a career criminal who had been in prison multiple times in Sweden when he arrived in Britain on a rigid inflatable dinghy last year.
His terrifying record ranges from sexual abuse of a child to animal cruelty, repeated drugs offences, knife crimes, threatening behaviour, theft and fraud.
Husseini claimed asylum in the UK on the basis that his life was in danger from the Taliban in Afghanistan - when in reality he was fleeing justice in Sweden, where he was wanted for two more offences of carrying a knife and sexually harassing a schoolgirl.
And we have tracked down that teenaged victim and her mother who took pity on Husseini when he was homeless, allowing him to move into their home - only for him to repay them with violent cruelty.
Both women were abused sexually and coercively controlled by the tattooed migrant - as they exclusively reveal here.
And one makes a shocking new allegation against Husseini today: that he once raped her.
Having fled before his court appearance for molesting that schoolgirl, Linnea Anderson, he was eventually jailed for six months by a court in Stockholm last December - by which time he was in a British prison, awaiting trial for his threats to Mr Farage.
It was the latest in a string of convictions there which The Mail has uncovered and details in full for the first time below.
But first the horrifying story of those two women - a single mother who felt sorry for Husseini when she discovered he was living in a tent, and her schoolgirl daughter who, in trying to help him, she would inadvertently expose to a monster.
This ill-fated meeting came in November 2020 when single mother-of-two Lotta Andersson was scrolling on Snapchat where she met the initially endearing Husseini - only to discover he was living rough in woodland near to her.
A combination of her loneliness and gullibility and her concern for his homelessness plight soon persuaded her to allow him to move into the two bedroom flat in the Lidingö suburb of Stockholm she shared with daughter Linnea, then 15, and her younger brother.
This happened in February 2021 and almost immediately Husseini began to attempt to control both mother and daughter.
Speaking exclusively from her home in Sweden, Mrs Andersson, now 44, recalls that for the first month of living in their home Husseini was 'nice and charming' but then quickly and dramatically changed, or as she put it: 'He turned like he had lost a few brain cells'.
Husseini quickly became controlling and over-bearing, she says: 'He started treating me like a child in my own home, I wasn't allowed to see my friends anymore and he'd tell me when to go to bed, at 9.30pm every night.
'If I needed cigarettes, he said he'd go because I had to stay in.
'He'd peer over my shoulder when I used to sit on a bench outside my home because he wanted to check if I was messaging anyone. He'd tell me 'if I catch you talking to a man I will kill you'
This controlling tendency wasn't confined to Mrs Anderson but extended to her daughter - and in May that year he physically assaulted Linnea after she defied his attempts to dictate what she was allowed to wear.
Miss Anderson, now 20, recalled: 'I was going to a friend's birthday party but when he saw what I was wearing he told me 'You cannot go out like that'.
'I told him that he couldn't tell me what to do and I went anyway.
'When I came home later with my friend, he came towards me and grabbed both my shoulders, lunged forwards and bit my cheek, causing it to swell up.
'I was very shocked and upset and couldn't understand why he did it. I ran into my room crying.'
But worse was to follow.
Two weeks after that violent assault, Miss Andersson told how Husseini came into her room one morning while her mother was out and began touching her inappropriately.
She said: 'I was lying in bed, I didn't have anything on apart from a night-dress and he sat down on the couch and touched my shoulder and started telling me that he loved me.
'He said he was only with my mum because he wanted to see me but that he didn't want to break my mother's heart.
'He then told me that when my mum took my brother to school in the mornings he would grab my mobile phone that my mum had recently confiscated from me and look at a naked photo I had taken of myself.
'He said he would look at the picture and pleasure himself to it.
'I felt sick, angry and confused. I was only 15 at the time and couldn't believe what he was telling me.
'I told him that I didn't want to be in any relationship with him because he was too old and he was in a relationship with my mother.'
Miss Andersson, who now works in a shop and lives in the countryside two hours north of Stockholm, said his sexual grooming was the final straw, for the then schoolgirl
She told her social worker what happened and was quickly moved to live with her maternal grandfather.
She added: 'It was not a good environment for me to live in. He would bring his friends back and take drugs when I was in my room asleep.
'Sometimes I'd awake to find one of his friends in bed with me and touching me inappropriately. I'd shout at them to get out but Fayaz thought it was funny.
'He even gave me alcohol, cannabis and ecstasy, even though he knew how young I was. I'd be a little afraid to take the drugs but he'd say go on – go on. Try it.' But I used to feel sick from the effects of the drugs.
'It was only when I got to live with my grandfather that I felt safe and protected. I still wake up now and again in a panic and start crying, it's been a nightmare but now I may sleep a little easier.'
If Husseini's sexualised behaviour towards a child was sickening, her mother would be treated as badly or worse.
Mrs Anderson recalls with a shudder: 'On one occasion he raped me.
'And then just said 'Now go to bed, I'm going out.'
'Just like that, like it was nothing.
She continues: That was the only time he was physically abusive to me.
'Because I would tell him 'if you hit me, I will hit you back but it might not be straight away'
'He was worried I might get him when he was asleep.'
She eventually kicked him out in September 2021 and last saw him in February 2022.
Mrs Andersson said that throughout their turbulent seven-month relationship Husseini was cheating on her with a younger woman, with whom he had a son.
She continues: 'Fayaz would tell me that he wanted to marry me so he could stay in Sweden. But while he was with me, he was going up north to Umea to see another woman.
'He never admitted he was going to see her, he'd say he was seeing friends, but I knew. But he was so paranoid about me going out and talking to other men that he'd send a chaperone to stay at my house and keep an eye on me.
'It was an Iraqi guy, a friend of his. He would accompany me everywhere I went.'
As well as the attacks on mother and daughter they also saw and learned of other violence and threats.
Mrs Anderson said that Husseini had once boasted of having threatened a female guard on train he had got into a row with: he told her that he would decapitate then rape her and then urinate on her body.
She also said he got into a fight with that Iraqi friend and held a knife to his throat in front of her and her six-year-old son.
Both women remain traumatised by their contact with him - and were delighted when we informed them that he had been jailed in London.
Miss Anderson said: 'I'm so happy that he is behind bars and out of Sweden. They should throw away the key because he's a monster who deserves to rot in jail.
'I'd hate to see him ever come back here – even if that means that he never serves a second in a Swedish prison for what he did to me.
'I'm too scared that the authorities would let him out too early and that he'd come for me and my mum. Once he's out of jail in England, they should deport him straight back to Afghanistan forever, well away from us.'
The Scandinavian country has been plagued by social division since allowing an unprecedented influx of refugees in recent years - driven by the crimes of characters like Fayez Husseini.
The full extent of Husseini's criminal career is laid bare in Swedish crime reports obtained by the Daily Mail, which demonstrate the shocking danger Husseini poses.
His criminal career there began within weeks of when he is thought to have arrived in Sweden saying his life in Afghanistan had been in danger from the Taliban.
He would not prove a good addition to Swedish society.
In May 2019 Husseini was given a five-month prison term for fraud and the handling of counterfeit money together with making threats to a public official and drug offences.
Almost immediately he was released from prison, he was arrested again and in October that year was in court for theft for which he was fined.
Four months later, in February 2020, he was back in court for further drug offences.
The following October, 2021, he was sentenced to a further three months in prison for making unlawful threats and drug offences.
In 2022, he demonstrated just how vile he could be: he livestreamed on TikTok himself beating and kicking a pet dog he had acquired. Concerned viewers notified police who swooped ito rescue the poor animal, named Dexter.
Remarkably, despite this police involvement, Husseini doesn't appear to have ever been charged over this animal abuse.
But he was soon back in court on other matters: in March 2023 he was sentenced to two months for drug offences.
Husseini – who smoked cannabis and took ecstasy regularly – continued with his habit following his release and was fined once more for drug offences last March.
It was on 12 October 2024 that Husseini posted his now notorious video threatening Farage - and 19 days later, last Halloween, he arrived on the Kent coast to claim asylum in Britain.
Some two months after he had left Sweden, he had his final appearance in their criminal justice system, tried in absentia for having terrified shoppers at a retail park by menacingly waving a knife.
For that sentence, the Swedish court also considered an earlier offence which Husseini had committed in May 2021 when he made sexual advances towards Linnea.
He was given a six month sentence for both which he will serve if he ever returns to Sweden - something the authorities there will no doubt hope never comes to pass.
Husseini – who had entered Britain with a fake surname of Khan and claimed to be 26-years-old – had pleaded guilty to a separate charge of attempting to enter the UK illegally at Southwark Crown Court on Tuesday.
As he was led down to the cells, he let loose a furious, foul-mouthed tirade accusing Mr Farage of initiating proceedings against him because 'you want to be Prime Minister.'
He continued: 'Just because you want to do that you want to f*** my life, you want to put me in prison.'
There remain questions as to his real identity: as well as that alias Khan, Husseini also used the name Raess Maffia on TikTok while also giving conflicting dates of birth believed to be so that he could appear younger and more vulnerable.
Outside court, Mr Farage welcomed the sentence but said he was 'deeply, deeply concerned' that Husseini would be 'out in 18 months' adding: 'This violent criminal... will be in this country, living in a house of multiple occupancy or a hotel, free to walk the streets whilst his asylum claim is being judged.
'And the only reason we know about this guy is because someone sent me it on TikTok and it makes me wonder how many other madapasas are there now in this country or will there be as the boats continue to cross the Channel.'
During his trial, it was revealed that Husseini's TikTok rant - which had hundreds of thousands of views - was posted in response to a video Mr Farage had uploaded to YouTube titled 'the journey of an illegal migrant', which highlighted Husseini and referenced 'young males of fighting age coming into our country about whom we know very little'.
Husseini made the video before embarking for the UK and was heard saying: 'Englishman Nigel, don't talk s*** about me.
'You not know me. I come to England because I want to marry with your sister. You not know me.
'Don't talk about me more. Delete the video. I'm coming to England. I'm going to pop, pop, pop.'
In order to emphasise the point and to show he was not joking, Husseini headbutted the camera during the video and pointed to the AK-47 tattoo on his face
Giving evidence last week, Mr Farage told the court that he found the clip 'pretty chilling', adding: 'Given his proximity to guns and love of guns, I was genuinely worried.'
And speaking after being told of Husseini's extensive criminal record, Mr Farage said: 'It all goes to show that I was right to highlight his case. How many more Fayaz Husseinis do we have walking around at the moment?
'My concern is that in 18 months time he will be set free and able to go and live in a hotel. I would like to hear from the Government as to whether this will be the case. I think I deserve that.
'He himself asked to go back to Afghanistan, why can't we deport him? The Germans are by the plane-load so why can't we?
'I would put him on a plane tomorrow frankly before he assaults a British prison guard.'
Evidence from Sweden suggests Mr Farage was right to be worried.
