Raul Garcia is a winner.
The Cuban dissident won his case against the Government of Barbados and the country’s Chief Immigration Officer, when a High Court judge ruled that his continued detention is unlawful.
But Garcia isn’t free to walk the streets of Barbados just yet.
Justice Margaret Reifer, after providing a 110-paragraph decision in the No 6 Supreme Court, informed Garcia’s legal team he would only be released from custody when lawyers and Immigration Department officials come up with a joint plan for the former drug dealer’s conditions of staying in the country, and who he will live with.
The judge noted she would then have to consider the plan before endorsing it, and only then could he be released. (BA)
