ATLANTA (CNN) — A man who was arrested in suburban Atlanta after a months-long, three-nation manhunt will be deported from the United States and returned to New Zealand to face murder charges in the death of his wife, authorities told CNN Friday. U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement took custody of Nai Yin Xue on Friday from DeKalb County, Ga., police, said spokesman Pat Reilly. ICE agents will escort him back to New Zealand, Reilly said. Xue, believed to be in his early 50s, was arrested in Chamblee, Ga., on Thursday after residents of an apartment complex recognized him from a Chinese-language newspaper, called police and detained him until officers arrived, police said. He is accused of killing his wife, Anan Liu, 27, and stuffing her body in the trunk of a car outside the couple’s Auckland, New Zealand, home last September. |
