Canada Border Services Agency: Refugee Board

Leon Mugesera Dept: The Immigration and Refugee Board ruled that Mugesera will remain at a detention centre until at least Friday, rather than return to his Quebec City home, according to CBC. The former Rwandan politician was scheduled to be extradited last Thursday to face charges related to the 1994 Rwandan genocide, but the court delayed his deportation after he suddenly fell ill and leon Mugesera lost his fight Monday to avoid detainment while he awaits deportation to Rwanda to face criminal charges. Lawyers for the Canada Border Services Agency said Mugesera is a flight risk because of his reaction after last week's deportation decision. They say he deliberately took medication to delay being sent back to Rwanda. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
