The #ACLU filed an emergency petition in the US District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia on Tuesday calling for Gyasi & her son to be released so they can seek #medical care.

“Ms. Gyasi secured the necessary visas for her son’s medical appointment, & by detaining them in dangerous conditions anyway, #CBP is breaking the #law & putting the #Trump administration’s cruel anti-immigrant agenda before basic human dignity & the #Constitution,” ACLU atty Dorna Maryam Movasseghi said.


#CBP is holding Gyasi & her son in a windowless holding room, acc/to the #ACLU. The pair’s attys allege that Gyasi & her son are being held in a work area converted into a cell with a single bed, a toilet & a sink.

Gyasi has been taken to a #hospital twice for #medical issues while in custody…. On Friday, Gyasi felt lightheaded & was examined at a local hospital, where medical staff expressed concern that she was not being fed enough[‼️], acc/to the court filing.

The #sister of the #President of #Ireland has been #kidnapped and taken #hostage by #Israel.

How is this not getting wall-to-wall #coverage on every #news outlet? How is there not an #international #military operation to bring her back?

A #genocidal state kidnapped a #family member of a head of state. That sort of thing is usually considered an act of #war.

She is also a #medical #doctor.
