A woman being held by Canadian authorities for wearing a necklace allegedly linked to the LTTE will remain in detention for at least another month, according to the Canadian Immigration and Refugee Board.

The Board announced yesterday that the woman must be jailed while the Canada Border Services Agency continues its investigation.

The woman and her children were among 492 Sri Lankan Tamils to arrive in British Columbia on the MV Sun Sea last August. She is the last mother to remain in custody.
