Both cases deal with the procedure for removal of Convention refugees for reasons of national security under the Immigration Act, R.S.C.

CSIS claimed to have obtained evidence that Ahani was a trained assassin operating with the Ministry of Intelligence and National Security of Iran (MOIS).

This result differs from the Suresh case, where the Court ruled that procedural fairness requirements had not been met, and ordered a new hearing.

Ruling unanimously, the Court concluded: We are satisfied that Ahani was fully informed of the Minister's case against him and given a full opportunity to respond.

We conclude that the process accorded to Ahani was consistent with the principles of fundamental justice, and would reject this ground of appeal.
