🚨 URGENT: A muslim family of 4 is about to be separated at Karnes Detention Facility & the dad taken to adult detention.
We need your help to STOP this from happening. FAST.
ICE has scheduled to separate them at 12pm CST.
ICE has stated that the reason Mr. F* will continue to be detained is because he presents a “security risk” if released. That conclusion is unwarranted.
Tajikstan and Russia have a documented history of persecuting muslim minorities with false accusations of extremism.
Moreover, Mr. & Mrs. F*'s faith & religious beliefs prohibit her from staying in the home of adult males w/o the presence of her husband bc she's a married woman.
She can't be released w/her children alone especially bc she's 4 months pregnant.
Mr F* needs to be released too.
Mr. F* wants the public to know that this is how believers of faith are treated in this country.
He came to the U.S. seeking freedom of religion and this is what he gets.
We need your help in order to stop this separation from happening.
☎️ Call ICE at Karnes NOW: 830-254-2500 & demand Mr. F* is released with his family. Family separation is NOT an option. For this family or ANY. #FreeThemAll #SafeAndTogether
Use the following script to call 👇🏾
"I'm calling about Mr. F's case, 213-362-642 & his wife & children. Mr. F came to the U.S. seeking freedom of religion, one of our foundational rights. I demand that Mr. F and his family be freed together. He was safe enough for family prison, he's safe enough for the community."
"Do not separate Mr. F from his family and send him to adult detention. Family separation is wrong in any form. It is shameful that ICE is relying on false accusations from the Russian and Tajik governments, which the US state department warns against, to target Mr. F."
