Despite dementia, covering his face, and visiting hospitals in quiet villages, immigration officials deemed his efforts insufficient “hiding.” But the Federal Court overturned the decision, ruling the board misread the legal standard—focusing on “living in hiding” instead of whether he took any precautions. The case is now being sent back for reconsideration. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
