US: Two U.S. courts have temporarily halted the deportation of Subramanyam “Subu” Vedam, a 64-year old Indian origin man who spent nearly four decades behind bars before his murder conviction was overturned.

Vedam, who legally immigrated to the U.S. from India as a baby, is currently being held at a detention centre in Alexandria, Louisiana.

Last week, an immigration judge granted a stay on his deportation until the Board of Immigration Appeals decides whether to reopen his case a process that could take several months. On the same day, a district court in Pennsylvania also issued an order blocking his removal.
