Former airline hijacker, Windsor law graduate
Former terrorist wants to be lawyer
John Goddard writes for the Toronto Star:
Parminder Singh Saini, 46, blames youth and naïveté for his role in a violent airline hijacking 25 years ago in his native India and says he is rehabilitated.
Mr. Saini was admitted into Canada in 1995 on a fake passport. A few months later, the authorities declared him a national security threat and ordered him deported. As he was fighting this order, Mr. Saini completed a BA at York and a law degree at Windsor. He has already finished his articles. Mr. Saini’s case is now before the Law Society of Upper Canada.
“Over the course of the last 15 years, (Canadian) courts and tribunals have declared that he is a danger to the public and security in Canada and that he shouldn’t remain,” law society counsel Susan Heakes told the hearing this month into whether to accept Saini’s licence application to practise law.

Bob Mitchell of the Toronto Star writes:
… the killer, 15, will serve only eight months, the remaining part of the two-year custody portion of the seven-year sentence imposed yesterday by Justice Bruce Durno for a guilty plea to second-degree murder. The sentence is the maximum for second-degree murder under Canada’s youth laws.
