美国法院阻止驱逐一名男子,此人的谋杀罪在监狱服刑43年后被推翻。 A U.S. court blocks deportation of a man whose murder conviction was overturned after 43 years in prison.

一名64岁的印度籍男子Subramanyam“Subu”Vedam在因谋杀罪于8月被推翻而服刑43年之后,被两个美国法院阻止驱逐出境。 A 64-year-old Indian-origin man, Subramanyam “Subu” Vedam, has had his deportation blocked by two U.S. courts after serving 43 years in prison for a murder conviction overturned in August. Vedam生于印度,自幼在美国长大,是1982年被捕前申请公民身份的合法永久居民。 Born in India and raised in the U.S. since infancy, Vedam was a lawful permanent resident who applied for citizenship before his 1982 arrest. 仅仅根据没有实际证据的间接证据对他的定罪,在受到压制的弹道学证据出现后被撤销。 His conviction, based solely on circumstantial evidence with no physical proof, was vacated after suppressed ballistics evidence emerged. 虽然移民当局试图以过去非暴力的毒品指控将他驱逐出境,但法院在等待移民上诉委员会审查之前,以他数十年来在监禁期间被非法监禁和交纳款项为由,暂缓将他驱逐出境。 Though immigration authorities seek to deport him over a past non-violent drug charge, courts have stayed his removal pending review by the Board of Immigration Appeals, citing his decades of wrongful imprisonment and contributions while incarcerated.
