ACCUSED SUN SEA HUMAN SMUGGLERS FOUND NOT GUILTY

Three of four men accused of bringing hundreds of Tamil migrants into Canada illegally have been found not guilty by a jury in B.C. Supreme Court. Justice William Ehrcke declared a mistrial for the fourth man after a jury couldn’t decide the fate of Kunarobinson Christhurajah. The jury began its deliberations last Thursday, but on Wednesday told the judge they couldn’t reach a verdict. The MV Sun Sea travelled from Thailand to Canada in summer 2010 carrying 492 Sri Lankan Tamils who intended to claim refugee status.
