Santiago Palma may be forced home, saying he’s being punished for speaking out, writes Steve Kilgallon.
The Green Party have made a plea for the migrant whistleblower who torpedoed the career of one of their own MPs to be allowed to stay in the country.
Santiago Latour Palma spoke out to Stuff last March about the alleged exploitation he suffered at the bike shop owned by Christian Hoff-Nielsen, the husband of Green MP Darleen Tana. Tana was eventually ousted from Parliament as a result.
Palma’s visa expires on Friday, and Associate Immigration Minister Chris Penk has, so far, refused to intervene in the case.
