Court Orders Deportation of Three Jamaican Women Over Immigration Violations

Three Jamaican nationals are set to be removed from Antigua and Barbuda this week after appearing in court over immigration violations. The women Shantel Haynes, 24, Jova Gordon, 23, and Sophia Bonnick, 50 were brought before a magistrate in St. John’s on Monday. Their cases stemmed from allegations that they remained in Antigua and Barbuda after the period they had been authorized to stay had expired. Following the court proceedings, orders were issued for all three women to leave the country. The women are now expected to be deported on Thursday, bringing their unauthorized stay in Antigua and Barbuda to an end.
