Milan Jaff, a figure deported from Finland due to his criminal activities, recently granted an interview to the Kurdish Rudaw Media, where he openly shared his thoughts on Finland and his experiences growing up there. Jaff, who arrived in Finland at the age of 15 or 16, initially gained notoriety through prank videos before transitioning to rap music. He expresses a lifelong interest in fighting and even mentions a desire to pursue mixed martial arts, which he claims he was denied the opportunity to do. His connection to the Finnish rap scene was primarily through his friendship with fellow rapper Turisti, who encouraged his musical aspirations.

During the interview, Jaff addressed a series of serious allegations against him, including assaults, sexual abuse, attempted murder, weapons charges, and drug crimes. He refuted the sexual assault allegations, arguing they were unfounded, and claimed that his involvement in prison fights was purely self-defense. He further explained that the robbery charge stemmed from a debt collection incident. Jaff received a sentence of approximately nine years in prison, and in 2025, Finland withdrew his asylum status, leading to his subsequent deportation.

Jaff's story raises significant questions about the integration of foreign nationals in Finland and the ramifications of criminal activities on asylum status. His experiences highlight the complexities surrounding the narratives of immigrant backgrounds, societal acceptance, and the challenge of navigating life in a foreign country, especially when it comes to law and order. Jaff’s situation serves as a potent reminder of the ongoing conversations in Finland regarding crime, immigration, and public perception of migrants.
