Oklah, who plays one of the main characters in the Netflix series "Sin," is at risk of being deported from Sweden to Syria. On Tuesday, students at the school where he works as a janitor gathered outside Malmö City Hall to demonstrate.

"A Latin heart is protected" and "No person is illegal," were among the words on the many students' placards.

On Monday, Oklah, who has lived in Sweden since 2014, was at the Kristallengalan in Stockholm, where he was nominated in the category of male lead of the year for his role in "Sin."

It feels like two different worlds to be here and at the same time have that meeting (with the Migration Board, editor's note) scheduled. I'm just trying to live in the present and not focus on it right now, he told TT.
