BAP's Graham Lim arrested
BY CEDELF TUPAS

Graham Lim, the secretary-general of the Basketball Association of the Philippines, was arrested yesterday at the BAP Office inside the Rizal Memorial Sports Complex in Manila, a few months after the Department of Justice decided he should be banished from the country, Rep. Monico Puentevella said.

Armed with a warrant of deportation issued by BI commissioner Alipio Fernandez, immigration agents who had tracked down Lim for the past two months picked up the basketball official at the RSMC and brought him to the BI offices, before placing him in the bureau's detention center in Camp Bagong Diwa in Taguig.

Lim, who did not resist arrest, had appealed the deportation decision before the legal department of the Office of the President, which twice denied his motion, BI intelligence chief Faizal Hussin said. Malacaņang denied his appeal with finality on Nov. 9, 2005.
