Canada has allowed a gay and atheist Malaysian student to stay in the country as a refugee.
The Immigration and Refugee Board of Canada made the decision to allow Mr Hazim Ismail to stay following a 20-minute hearing on Tuesday (April 5).
Canada's Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) news reported that Mr Hazim, a University of Winnipeg student, feared for his life if he was sent back to Malaysia.
"It (the board's decision) was overwhelming and I feel really, really, loved and appreciated," Mr Hazim was quoted in an interview with CBC.
Mr Hazim said he once thought of returning to Malaysia and "live undercover" but he changed his mind since his case had attracted the attention of the local media. Full story...
