Qadri to challenge Canada court summons
Qadri�s counsel Mendel Green has refused to represent the TMQ chief in this case.
ISLAMABAD: Chief of the Tehrik-i-Minhajul Quran Dr Tahirul Qadri has decided to challenge in a Canadian court his summoning to that country on Feb 5 by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) to explain as to why he had violated the oath he took when seeking asylum there.
However, Qadri’s counsel, Mendel Green, had refused to represent the TMQ chief in this case, reported a private TV channel.
Green had assisted Qadri in his asylum application to Canada which was accepted in 2009.
The RCMP has reportedly said that Qadri had violated his oath which did not allow him to enter the country he had sought asylum from.
