I’m a victim of a system that is not perfect,” said Alam

in politics •  8 years ago  (edited)

There should be a law that if a newcomer commits a crime during, say the first 5 years they automatically get deported.
"In a nearly 20-minute statement to the court, Alam, 29, insisted his difficult upbringing in Bangladesh, which included being tortured by Al-Qaeda-linked terrorists, contributed to his offences in Canada.
He said the Canadian government does a poor job in educating newcomers like him to the country’s legal realities and predicted more refugees would be committing similar offences.
“I believe, in a way, I’m a victim of a system that is not perfect,” said Alam, who apologized to his victims, one of whom looked on."
