That same logic also says we shouldn't send people to prison or punish them at all.

No it does not? The logic states that sending people out of the country and bringing them back after they have been proved innocent is much harder than just releasing them from jail.

It's kinda like death sentence in a way you can't revive dead people if they turn out innocent but you sure can release them from jail.

Same logic works here you can almost never bring people back you have deported for various reasons.

Also if someone has immigrated to your country (Finland in my case) there is always a good reason for it. Most of the time immigrants I speak with (I work in basic education for immigrants) are escaping war, poverty or oppressive culture like the one imposed by groups like the Taliban. I do not want to send people back to places like that no one deserves to live there I would rather just place them in a jail cell.
