Sitsabaiesan: Rathika Sitsabaiesan

Rathika Sitsabaiesan: In a statement issued Wednesday, Rathika Sitsabaiesan said she was warned by Sri Lankan officials that she could be arrested and deported, according to CTV. Sitsabaiesan said in the statement that she had received word from the Canadian High Commission in Colombo that there was in fact no Sri Lankan arrest warrant in her name and OTTAWA -- A New Democrat MP of Tamil heritage says she experienced "political intimidation" during a private visit to her native Sri Lanka, but that authorities stopped short of trying to kick her out of the country. Canadian officials were scrambling on New Year's Eve to determine the veracity of reports that Sitsabaiesan, a Toronto-area MP, had been placed under house arrest. (www.immigrantscanada.com).
