Mar 07, 2014
PORT OF SPAIN, Trinidad, CMC – The High Court has dismissed an application for a habeas corpus writ to have nine members of a Canadian ultra-Orthodox Jewish sect released from detention in Trinidad and Tobago. Justice Vashiest Kokaram denied the writ after indicating that there were a number of procedural defects in the application. On Thursday, Immigration authorities said they have been advised to pursue the decision of having members of the orthodox Hasdic Jewish group, Lev Tahor, returned to Canada instead of allowing them to fly on to Guatemala.
