Law Society Tribunal and Viktor Hohots

Canada: The Pusumas left Canada in December 2014 before Toronto lawyer Viktor Hohots admitted to a Law Society Tribunal to professional misconduct in relation to 17 complaints from Roma refugee claimants, according to Toronto Star. Hohots was suspended from practice for five months and barred from practising refugee law for two years. After years of living in hiding on two continents — including three years in a Toronto church — Jozsef Pusuma, his wife, Timea Daroczi, and their daughter Viktoria have received word from the Trudeau government that they can finally call Canada home. The Pusumas had spent three years in sanctuary in a Toronto church and were clinging to the slim hope Canada would allow them to return on humanitarian and compassionate grounds for the wrong done by their former lawyer. On Sunday, members of Windermere United Church were told Immigration Minister John McCallum has authorized temporary residence permits for the family to return to Canada. They have been in hiding in Hungary ever since. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
