Selling senior Iranian officials have now been found in Canada, Global News reported on Friday, citing immigration officials, while Ottawa moves to suppress the ancient figures of the Islamic Republic in the middle of the Iranian diaspora pressure.
The last case concerns an Iranian citizen accused of having been a senior official in Tehran, added the report.
Man must appear before the Immigration and Refugees Council in June.
The report indicates that its name was initially published in Global News, but was then retained at the request of the Board of Directors, because the deportation hearing will be held in camera.
Man is an official from the Iranian Ministry of Petroleum, said the report citing the Iranian media.
The case is part of a broader repression launched by the Canadian government in 2022 targeting high -level Iranian civil servants living in the country, said Global News.
The deportation hearings of these people were largely held in secret and, according to the report, only one expulsion has been completed so far, although some people have voluntarily left Canada.
In January, Canadian authorities launched Iranian deportation procedure They said he was a main member of the Iranian government.
Earlier In March 2014Canada Immigration and Refugee Board (IRB) ordered the expulsion of Salman Samani, the Iranian Deputy Minister of the Interior during Hassan Rouhani’s mandate as president.
Salmani was the second high -ranking Iranian official who was ordered to leave Canada. In February of the same year, Majid Iranmanesh, director general of the Iranian vice-president for science and technology, was also forced to leave.
In June 2024, after the pressure of the members of the Iranian diaspora, Ottawa moved to officially designate the body of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard (IRGC) as a terrorist organization, effectively hampering thousands of senior Iranian officials, including the best members of the IRGC to penetrate Canada.
