A Sri Lankan asylum seeker accused of sexually assaulting a Sydney university student has had his visa cancelled, The Daily Telegraph can reveal today.

The temporary visa was cancelled on May 3, the day after the Supreme Court granted Daxchan Selvarajah, 21, bail.

"The acting minister cancelled his visa on May 3," his lawyer Ken Robinson, of the Sydney South West Legal Centre, said.

"It is before the Migration Review Tribunal today and we are awaiting a decision".

Selvarajah faced Parramatta Local Court today for a procedural hearing after being charged with indecent assault.

He is alleged to have put his hand down the pyjamas of a sleeping university student at a Macquarie University unit on Februray 21. (Source: The Australian)

Somehow I don't think the diaspora or any HR group will want to get involved simply because the guy is in the wrong.

They should stay in Australia and not to be returned to Sri Lanka

These are the so called "refugees" who go and abuse the laws of the country that gives them shelter. Get more of them so that we can get rid of these scums from our country.

Why do you want to send the double criminals back to Sri Lanka so early, put him in hard labor for about fifty years and decide what to do with him later.

This is a clear HR violation.
