Canadian With Ties To
Hells Angels Turned Back
At the Airport
A Canadian known for his
association with the
"Hells Angels" was
refused entry into Costa
Rica by immigration
officials at the Juan
Santamaría (San José)
international airport
and was returned back to
Canada on the return
flight to Toronto.
Immigration officials
were on the alert for
the arrival of James
William Miller, 43 years
of age, and a native of
Ottawa, Canada, after
being tipped off by the
international police
organization, INTERPOL.
According to INTERPOL,
the Canadian is part of
the motorcycle gang that
is tied to a number of
crimes that include
money laundering and use
of prohibited weapons.
Miller arrived on
Saturday on a direct
flight from Toronto and
although there were no
outstanding warranties
against the man, Costa
Rican immigration
authorities deemed the
man dangerous and
refused his entry.
"It was decided to
refuse him, that is not
allow him to enter the
country for security
reasons", said Francisco
Castaing, head of the
Policía de Migración
(immigration police).
Miller was held under
closed guard for some
time by immigration
officials while
immigration authorities
negotiated with the
airline to get him a
seat on the next flight
to Toronto.
