The RCMP. CBSA and Public Safety Canada all denied CBC s request for interviews or specific information on Hamdan s case or risk assessment.
They noted there are 993 foreign nationals in the country who are not currently in detention, but are inadmissible to Canada for safety and security reasons.
In Hamdan s case, the CBSA wants to deport him back to his native Jordan, where Hamdan says he would be killed. Officials have also said they found ISIS insignia graffiti on his cell wall while he was being held in detention. Hamdan says it was merely an Islamic emblem.
