SIX BANGLADESHIS are challenging an immigration order that allowed them only a week in Barbados.

The businessmen arrived from Trinidad on November 16 and, after being interviewed, were given a week and released to members of the Muslim Association of Barbados.

But they were dissatisfied with the time given and challenged the order of the chief immigration officer.

Queen’s Counsel Alair Shepherd, along with attorneys Sumaya Desai and Baseer Makda, took the matter before Justice Randall Worrell yesterday in the No. 10 Supreme Court.

It was adjourned until December 7 for hearing and the men’s time was extended until the court date. (AC)
