[Guest guest]

Do to popular outrage, the Tibetan nun was released from jail pending a

hearing, Friday night January 30th. She has been staying with her friend from

Tibetan Free Radio who translated for her. Ani (sister) Sonam's immigration

hearing comes up this Monday, March 15th.

<< Dear friends,

 

First of all, I would like to thank each and every one of you for helping

Ani Sonam.

 

As you know that Ani Sonam's case is not resolved, so her attorney was given

just 15 days to file brief and that is on March 15th. I am requesting again

you to either call or fax Chief Jazier Belasquide at 202-307-1514 or fax at

202-307-1579 and express your concern about Sonam's case. I just came to know

that Chief Jazier Belasquide is the right person to ask to drop the appealed

filed by DHS.

 

 

Thanking you again,

 

 

Sonam Singeri
