Cui Yu Hu, 104, must return to China

On February 24, Australian media reported the bizarre (not to mention extremely disturbing) story that Cui Yu Hu, a 104-year-old woman, is being forced by Australia's draconian immigration regime to return to China.


"Mrs Hu arrived in Australia in 1995 on a visitor's visa and could not return home 12 months later because no airline would take her because she was too old and frail."

Now the latest news is that the Department of Immigration (headed by Amanda 'Amandatory Detention' Vanstone) has rejected her appeal. Mrs Hu is now stuffed, unless Vanstone makes a media opportunity out of it with a 'compassionate' last-minute reprieve.
