Former diplomat to be deported after appeal fails
Somali ambassador: Bears 'collective responsibility' for regime's rights abuses
Finbarr O'Reilly
National Post
The Appeal Division of Canada's Immigration and Refugee Board has upheld the deportation order of a former high-ranking Somali diplomat who served as an ambassador during the regime of the former dictator, Mohammed Siad Barre.
Aden Farah Shirdon, who served as Somalia's consulate-general in New York and as the Somali ambassador to Djibouti during the late 1980s, was ordered deported in 1997 on the grounds that he was a senior member of a government that was "engaged in systematic or gross violations of human rights."
Mr. Shirdon, who is thought to be living among Toronto's large Somali community, came to Canada in 1991 and was granted refugee status three years later.
Under Canadian immigration law, senior officials of a regime with a record of human rights violations can be found to be complicit even if they did not commit crimes against humanity themselves.
In Mr. Shirdon's case, no specific crimes or abuses are mentioned, but the board's decision "embodies the notion of collective responsibility for senior officials or members of a regime that engaged in gross human rights abuses," court documents say.
Under the heavy-handed rule of Mr. Siad Barre, who took power in a military coup in 1969 and who later fled Somalia in 1992 after being driven from office by armed rebels, rival clans were pitted against each other or systematically repressed when they dared to form opposition movements.
"The number of people killed by government forces, shot pointblank, or killed as a result of aerial bombardment and artillery shelling and war-related wounds is in the vicinity of 50,000 to 60,000," reported Africa Watch at the time.
"An ambassador is the highest representative of his country abroad," wrote three IRB members in reaching their recent decision. "An ambassador of a regime [such as Mr. Siad Barre's] would have to defend the regime's human rights record against criticism from foreign governments or quit because his conscience would not allow him to follow instructions from the regime. Indeed, there is a moral choice to be made ... [Mr. Shirdon] is not morally blameless."
During Mr. Barre's rule, Djibouti was an important diplomatic posting, according to court documents, because "it was the listening post of the regime on the opposition movements."
Mr. Shirdon served as an ambassador in Djibouti for three years, the documents reveal, indicating that "he had the confidence of the regime to deal with dissidents and other sensitive matters."
After Mr. Siad Barre's downfall in the early 1990s, Somalia descended into violence and anarchy and Mr. Shirdon fled to the United States.
While he subsequently came to Canada and was granted refugee status, his wife, Amina Egal Shirdon, was rejected and now lives in the United States with Mr. Shirdon's five children, court documents say.
The family's whereabouts were not known, but since Mr. Shirdon could now face persecution if deported to Somalia, he is more likely to join his family in the United States, said Jeremiah Eastman, the lawyer who represented the Minister of Immigration in the case.
Michael Crane, Mr. Shirdon's lawyer, said yesterday that he did not have his client's permission to discuss the case. Mr. Shirdon could have taken his case to the Federal Court if he had applied for a judicial review within 15 days of the IRB decision. However, Mr. Eastman said that no application had been filed within the necessary time frame. |

Xadi or is it Xaddiyo:
Shut your festering gob you dickless son of a hoor. What the hell did this man ever do to you that you are calling him a murderer?
I live in Toronto and I know this man and he is a friend of mine and I can say without any fear of succesful contradiction that he is one of the most respected and admired people in Toronto. He has helped hundreds of Somalis who sought help at his paralegal clinic and freely at that, more often than not.
To be condemned by Canada should be a badge of honour to any right-thinking person because it is one filthy and sick society and their government even worse. These are the people who tortured a Somali kid to death and then blamed it on a clueless Red Indian NCO, convicting and sending him to jail, while the officers who ordered the torture got off scotfree. And when the official inquiry that they ordered got too close for comfort they shut it down. And you tell me these cocksuckers know anything about justice. Where is the justice for Shidane Haaruun, the young lad who was tortured to death in Beledweyne? Tell me the names of the senior political and milatary figures who took the blame, moral or otherwise, for this outrage?
And while you are at it, if this man, in his capacity as an Ambassador was indirectly culpable in war crimes, why is his former boss enjoying a comfortable life in the lovely and verdant city of Hargeisa? And what exactly is he doing there? I will tell you what: He is the speaker of your poxy so-called Somaliland parliament. Of course I speak of Axmed Qeybe. Why the double standard? Is he morally blameless? Why isn't he in jail answering a charge instead of heading the body that writes your laws?
Somalia will never be amount to anything until sick assholes like you are shot to pieces and hung by their eyelids from the closest tree.
They did the man a huge favour by kicking him out because Canada stinks worse than your prostitute mother's pus-filled and smelly cunt.
Fucck you and everything you stand for, you shitt-faced cunt. |
