BIJAN is throwing an emergency rally at the Moakley Courthouse in Boston at noon on Wednesday, April 30.
Ruth Mufute, a 70-year-old lawful permanent resident from Worcester and beloved member of their broader immigrant justice network, was detained by federal agents at Logan Airport earlier Tuesday afternoon as she was traveling home to her family.
We need to mobilize our networks to demand Ruth’s immediate release and return to her family. We are deeply concerned for her health and well-being as she continues to be held incommunicado. As her community we are rallying and calling on federal and state leadership to demand Ruth’s release from detention NOW.
