From Canadian Press via the Globe and Mail (Former KGB man facing deportation by Jim Bronskill, April 15, 2007):
A 70-year-old Vancouver man who spent two decades with the Soviet security service faces deportation from Canada.
Givi Abramishvili, who rose to the rank of lieutenant-colonel in the feared KGB, failed to persuade the appeal division of the federal immigration board he should be allowed to stay.
Adjudicator Erwin Nest issued a deportation order upon finding “ample credible and trustworthy evidence” to reasonably conclude Mr. Abramishvili was a KGB member from 1969 to 1989, when the Soviet empire began crumbling.
Mr. Abramishvili came to Canada on a visitor's visa in 1999 and four years later made a refugee claim, which has yet to be decided.

It is the second case of a former KGB employee to surface in British Columbia this year. Authorities have also made a deportation order against Mikhail Alexander Lennikov, a former Communist youth league leader who participated in spying on behalf of the Soviets.
Mr. Abramishvili, a citizen of the Republic of Georgia, was born in 1937 in Tblisi, then part of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics.
