Official endpoint and partial-date duration review October 13, 2026: The official federal locator matches existing register 81873-053, full name Suresh Sriskandarajah, age 46, and confirms July 8, 2014 noncustody. The stored US admission is December 2012 at month precision, not a documented December 1 day. Its placeholder cannot support the legacy 584 exact days, which are cleared. Earlier Canadian custody, bail and extradition phases are not inferred to be continuous; their exact endpoints remain unresolved.
