Convention Refugee

Military Official Dept: Mohamed Said Jama, 40, could be deported to Bossaso in northern Somalia any day. His legal avenues to stave off being removed from Canada have been exhausted. Jama maintains he would be killed because of his family connections. A Somalian man with a violent criminal past is desperately appealing to remain in Canada as the federal government prepares for a second time to deport him. But Jama, who came to Canada in 1991 as a Geneva Convention refugee, is pleading to stay, saying being sent back would be a death sentence because his father was a reviled high ranking military official. As reported in the news.
