A former Kelowna Hells Angels associate has lost his fight in court and now faces deportation from Canada.
David Revell, 55, could soon be on his way back to England after the Federal Court of Appeals dismissed his application for a judicial review of a decision from the Immigration and Refugee Board (IRB) back in 2016. Due to Revell香蕉视频直播檚 香蕉视频直播渟erious criminality,香蕉视频直播 the IRB deemed him inadmissible to Canada.

Revell emigrated to Canada at age 10 in 1974. He is a permanent resident but, according to the judge香蕉视频直播檚 decision, never applied for citizenship.
In March 2008, Revell was charged with possessing cocaine for the purposes of trafficking, committing that offence at the direction of or in association with a criminal group, and trafficking cocaine. The charges followed an investigation into the activities of the East End Hells Angels chapter in Kelowna.
Revell was ultimately found guilty of the drug possession and drug trafficking charges and was acquitted of the criminal organization charge. He served five years in prison for those charges.
In 2013, he also pleaded guilty to assault with a weapon and assault causing bodily harm arising from allegations by his then-girlfriend. He received a suspended sentence and two years of probation.
