Robert Mugatsi, 47, was visited by the immigration officers at a house in Linnet, Orton Wistow, Peterborough, at about 6.30pm on 25 August last year, as he was wanted on warrant to be deported.
When officers were at the front door, Mugatsi ran into the garden and tried to escape over a fence but ran back inside the house when an officer came into the garden.
They went to the front door and Mugatsi opened it and produced a large hunting-style knife, about seven inches long, and pointed it at the officer.
