After spending more than four decades in prison and consistently avoiding deportation for a murder conviction that was later overturned, Indian-origin Subramanyam “Subu” Vedam has won a crucial legal battle to remain in the United States.
A US immigration judge has ruled that 64-year-old Vedam can stay in the country, rejecting efforts by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to deport him. The decision follows a hearing in which the court found that Vedam had demonstrated rehabilitation and did not pose a threat to the public.
