A Sri Lankan man accused of killing his wife in Quebec five years ago has been deported after the charge against him was stayed because of an unreasonable delay. Thanabalasingham's second-degree murder charge was stayed in April after Superior Court Justice Alexandre Boucher ruled it had taken too long to get to trial. He was ordered deported in April because of an earlier conviction on domestic abuse charges involving his wife, Anuja Baskaran. Sivaloganathan Thanabalasingham, centre, waived his right to refugee protection, saying he doesn't believe he will be in danger in Sri Lanka. Judith Gadbois-St-Cyr, a spokesperson for Canada Border Services Agency, declined to comment directly on the case, citing privacy legislation.
