ARLEIGH HECTOR JAMES is still in Barbados.

And his attorney says he has all rights to remain in the island.

James, who is now living with his sister at Lowlands Park, Christ Church, was released from HMP Dodds last Tuesday after spending 22 years for hacking his wife Deborah to death in 1994.

Since then, his release has been the subject of much discussion, with reports suggesting that immigration officials were caught napping in relation to the Vincentian farmer’s release and were moving to deport him to his homeland.

Calls to Chief Immigration Officer Wayne Marshall to find out the status of the Immigration Department’s proceedings against James, were not returned and the MIDWEEK NATION was told he was in a meeting.(HLE)
