Guatemalan Authorities: Minister Of Citizenship And Immigration

American Authorities Dept: Jorge Vinicio Orantes Sosa, who was arrested while visiting family in Lethbridge earlier this year, is sought by Guatemalan authorities who accuse him of war crimes, according to Edmonton Journal. Sosa will be granted 30 days in Canada as he is entitled to file an appeal of the ruling. The minister of citizenship and immigration will have to sign an order before Sosa can be surrendered to American authorities and the former commander of an elite military unit accused of participating in the massacre of Guatemalan villagers was ordered Friday to be extradited to the U.S. to face perjury charges. The extradition hearing began on Monday in a Calgary court. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
