Officer Reinstated After Immigration Arrest
Update: 2025-12-03
Description
An Illinois police officer, previously arrested for overstaying his tourist visa, has been reinstated to his job with full back pay. Radule Bojovic, a Montenegrin national, returned to duty with the Hanover Park Police Department, despite his immigration case ongoing. The departments decision was based on his bond not being contested and federal authorization to work. Bojovics employment sparked controversy, with critics highlighting the felony of a non-citizen possessing a firearm, a duty he performed daily. However, Hanover Park officials assert Bojovic was hired legally, passing background checks and receiving approval from the pension fund board. The total taxpayer cost for his employment is estimated to exceed two hundred thousand dollars.
