(Global News) A second alleged senior Iranian official found living in Canada is undergoing deportation proceedings, Global News has learned.
Canada has launched a case against Iranmanesh Majid, the Immigration and Refugee Board said on Wednesday.
No information about Majid or his alleged role in the Iranian regime has been released.
But he is being processed for possible deportation under sanctions introduced last year that banned senior members of Iran’s government from Canada.
Refugee Board spokesperson Anna Pape said the agency’s Immigration Division had received the case on Nov. 29. It is being handled by the IRB’s Toronto office, she said.
