Citizenship And Immigration Canada: Moammar Gadhafi

Adel Benhmuda Dept: After the review, Citizenship and Immigration Canada approved the Benhmuda family's return to Canada, according to CBC. The Benhmudas had lived in Canada since 2000 and applied for refugee status, saying they were in danger because Adel Benhmuda brother was linked to a group opposed to the regime of the late dictator Moammar Gadhafi and a Libyan family deported by Canadian immigration officials five years ago is being allowed to return to Canada on humanitarian and compassionate grounds after a Federal Court judge ordered a review of their case. Adel Benhmuda, his wife and four sons two of whom were born in Canada were deported to Libya in 2008 after their claim for refugee status in Canada was denied. (www.immigrantscanada.com).
