Nigerian jailed, court orders his deportation

A Delhi court has ordered deportation of a Nigerian national for possessing cocaine and illegally staying in India, but only after he serves a jail term on 32 months here. Special Judge Shail Jain convicted 25-year-old Chuks Micheal, resident of Nigeria, under the Narcotics Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act and the Foreigners Act but took a lenient view in sentencing, considering his young age and family circumstances.
