Summary

Kamran Javid, subject to a deportation order for life since 2000, sought judicial review of the Permanent Secretary for Security's refusal to revoke the order. The Court of Appeal considered whether changed personal circumstances (divorce from Pakistani wife, desire to marry a Hong Kong resident) warranted revocation of a deportation order. The appeal was heard by a three-judge panel after a contested hearing.
