Sister Patricia Fox to file counter affidavit against deportation order--lawyer

AN Australian missionary whom the Bureau of Immigration has ordered to leave the country for participating in protests will file a counter-affidavit to disprove allegations that she was an “undesirable alien,” her lawyer said on Wednesday.

"Sister Fox will be submitting her counter-affidavit or answer to prove that the charge that she is an 'undesirable alien' has no basis in fact and in law," her lawyer, Jobert Pahilga, said in a statement shortly after receiving a memorandum from the Intelligence Division from Commissioner Jaime B. Morente containing a supplemental report and recommendation to cancel her missionary visa and deport her.
