Petitioner and Chennai-based lawyer R. Kuruppan also wanted the court to direct
the central government to ensure that no foreigner who comes to the country with
a valid Indian visa is forcibly deported.
The petition assailed the central government's decision to deport Parvathi
Ammal, mother of Velupillai Prabhakaran, when she flew into Chennai airport from
Malaysia.
He said she was sent back to Malaysia despite holding a valid visa issued by the
Indian high commission in Kuala Lumpur.
Prabhakaran, the founder leader of the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE),
was killed along with his top lieutenants in May last year by the Sri Lankan
military.
