FRAMINGHAM -- Federal immigration officials are still pursuing the deportation of President Obama’s uncle, Onyango Obama, to Kenya, officials said today.
The statement from US Immigration and Customs Enforcement came a week after Onyango Obama resolved drunken driving charges and a day after the state Registry of Motor Vehicles issued him a hardship driver’s license so he could get to his job as manager at two Metrowest liquor stores.
“Now that Mr. Onyango’s criminal case has completed, ICE has communicated, in accordance with standard procedure, with his attorney regarding his removal pursuant to a previous final order by an immigration judge,’’ Brian P. Hale, ICE director of public affairs.
Obama, who is the half-brother of the president’s late father, must appear at a meeting next week at ICE offices in Burlington to discuss his deportation, according to a person with direct knowledge of his case.
It is unclear whether he will ultimately be deported. Obama’s immigration lawyer has said in the past that he intends to fight it.
Obama was last ordered deported in 1992. But he never left. He arrived today at his house in Framingham carrying grocery bags and wearing a baseball cap. He rushed inside without comment.
Obama appeared last Tuesday in Framingham District Court and admitted that his blood alcohol level was 0.14 when he was arrested by Framingham Police Officer Val Krishtal on Aug. 24. A judge continued the case without a finding for one year, meaning it will be dismissed if Obama’s record stays clean.READ THE FULL STORY AT THE BOSTON GLOBE
