Munir Ahmad Malhi, once a head constable in Pakistan's Punjab Police, faced deportation from Canada over his 37-year police career linked to serious crimes. Malhi came to Canada after retiring and sought refugee status, saying he risked persecution as an Ahmadiyya Muslim. Canada's immigration minister opposed his claim in 2020. In 2022, his refugee claim was blocked, branding him "complicit" in torture, rape, disappearances, and killings by the Punjab Police, though not personally involved. Malhi admitted the police force's violent reputation but said he was a low-level mail carrier with limited role. Despite this, records showed he was head constable and earned awards during his service. In 2024, Canada ordered his deportation. Malhi challenged the order in Federal Court, stating he neither took part in nor supported any crimes. He explained he stayed in the police to support his family and had little authority due to his faith. This month, the court overturned the deportation order, citing lack of justification and transparency, and sent Malhi's case for a fresh review by a new decision maker.
