Dealing with an illegal immigrant

A British woman, who failed to return home since arriving in Jamaica in November 2009, is to be deported for breaches of the Immigration Act, reports Go Jamaica.

The accused, Suzan Margaret Featherstone of Nottingham, England, was ordered deported when she appeared in the Spanish Town Resident Magistrates Court on Friday. She was also fined $10,000 or face 30 days at hard labour in prison.

Ms. Featherstone was arrested in Russell Pen, Linstead in St. Catherine on March 19 by the Linstead Fugitive Apprehension Team after she failed to depart in early March.

Ms. Featherstone allegedly grew locks to disguise herself. She also told investigators that she is married to a Jamaican. However, police checks revealed no marriage took place.
