WASHINGTON: A US appeals court has rejected a challenge by Sandeep Singh, a convicted drug trafficker, to his removal from the United States.
The Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals denied Singh’s petition on January 9. The court held that alleged procedural errors by immigration authorities did not affect the outcome of the case.
Singh had challenged a final administrative removal order issued by the Department of Homeland Security. He argued that the department violated immigration rules during the process.
