Fijian Soldier Ordered To Leave UK | Forces TV

A Fijian who served in the British Army for 13 years has been told he cannot settle in the UK and must leave the country by 9th August. Lance Corporal Isimeli Baleiwai, who is married to a British woman and has two British children, applied for British citizenship in March this year as he was leaving the Army in June. Foreign and Commonwealth soldiers can apply for Indefinite Leave to Remain after four years service and citizenship after five years service. But the UK Borders Agency rejected his application as the 32-year-old had faced disciplinary action for fighting with a colleague in 2010.
