SUPREME COURT OKAYS TRUMPS TRAVEL BAN ON 6 MUSLIM NATIONS
WASHINGTON, U.S – The U.S Supreme Court today voted overwhelmingly in favour of President Donald Trump’s travel ban on six Muslims countries.
Majority of the Supreme Court justices, with just two exceptions said that the policy can take full effect ahead of legal challenges.
What the decision implied is that Trump’s travel ban reintroduced in September with modification after initial failure can now go into operation.
Those affected in Trump’s traveler ban are travelers from Chad, Iran, Libya, Somalia, Syria and Yemen.
However it will however take into consideration decisions of lower courts which have actually acted as cog in the implementation of the travel ban, by saying that people bonafide relationship with citizens in the United States could not be kept out of the country. These include grandparents, cousins and other relatives.
The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals and the 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Richmond, Virginia, will be holding arguments on the legality of the ban this week.
