Flight Risk: Deportation Order and Murder Charges

flight risk: Graham Hughes / THE CANADIAN PRESS By Giuseppe Valiante The Canadian Press Thu., April 13, 2017 MONTREAL A man who was charged with killing his wife will remain detained by the border services agency while he appeals a deportation order, the Immigration and Refugee Board of Canada ruled Thursday, according to Toronto Star. Immigration board member Stephane Morin said Sivaloganathan Thanabalasingam remains a flight risk and a danger to the public. He will remain detained by the border services agency while he appeals a deportation order. Thanabalasingam, 31, arrived in Canada as a refugee from Sri Lanka in 2004, and recently became the first person in Quebec to not have murder charges against him proceeded with due to unreasonable delays in the justice system. Thanabalasingam is appealing that decision, which could take years to be heard. Despite the stay of proceedings, Canada Border Services Agency arrested him before he was officially released on the murder allegation and Canada's immigration and refugee board ordered him deported to his country of origin.
