SA: Minister rejects reprieve for family in Adelaide

One of three Kosovo Albanian families in Adelaide who are due to leave Australia tonight
has failed in its bid for last-minute reprieve.

A spokesman for Immigration Minister PHILIP RUDDOCK says the Minister has turned down
the family's application.

The three families, comprised of 12 men, women and children, are due to leave Adelaide
for Melbourne about 4 o'clock (CST) this afternoon.
