An Indian national who broke into a physically disabled woman’s home and sexually abused her in 2001 was deported Monday by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement after he was released from prison.
Ankil Chandrakant Bhavsar, 26, of Glendale Heights was convicted in 2003 of residential burglary and aggravated criminal sexual abuse after attacking a 50-year-old woman in her apartment in an unincorporated area near Wheaton. He was sentenced to 6 years in prison and served a little more than a year.
He was released Dec. 23 and turned over to the immigration department, known as ICE, where he remained in federal custody until he was deported to India, a department release said.
Bhavsar came to the United States in July 1999 as a legal, permanent resident, but that status was revoked after he was convicted, ICE officials said.
