Toronto (JTA) — Canada
has denied refugee status to
a former official of the
Palestine Liberation Organ-
ization, contending that he
is a security threat to the
country.
But for Mahmoud Abu
Shandi, held in detention
since he landed at Mon-
treal's Mirabel Airport near-
ly a month ago, the Im-
migration Department's
rebuff last week does not
necessarily mean his swift
ouster from Canada.
His case will be heard by
the Federal Court, which
will have to decide whether
Abu Shandi is indeed an ac-
tual or potential security
risk, as the immigration au-
thorities contend, or
whether he should be releas-
ed while his refugee claim is
processed.
If earlier security cases are
any guide, the legal
machinery grinds exceeding-
ly slowly.
One of the most notorious
terrorists dealt with by
Canada's Security and Intel-
ligence Service was
Mahmoud -Mohammad Issa
Mohammad, a member of
the Popular Front for the
Liberation of Palestine, who
arrived in Canada as an
immigrant in February
1987, was ordered deported
in December 1988 but is still
in the country.
Mr. Mohammad, 49, was
convicted of the 1968 ter-
rorist bombing of an El Al
airliner in Athens, in which
one man was killed. In 1970,
a Greek court sentenced
Mohammad to 17 years and
five months in prison, but he
was released a year later in
a hostage exchange and
deported to Lebanon.
Although an immigration
hearing determined that
Mohammad had concealed
his criminal past when ap-
plying for permanent
residence, he was permitted
to stay in the country, pen-
ding action on a request for
refugee status.
Under Canada's refugee
status determination pro-
cess, revised in January
1989, a claimant must pass a
credible basis hearing before
going before a full adjudica-
tion panel.
Owing to the heavy
backlog, Mr. Mohammad's
case has not yet been heard.
Also in the midst of the
same process is Ali Hussein
Sumaida, 27-year-old son of
the Iraqi ambassador to the
Philippines, who asked for
political asylum in Canada
in October 1990.
