Exclusive, April 4 – Hosame
Dergasly was arrested after
offering to selling fake
passports from Guatamela,
Germany and Turkey to an
undercover Federal agent who
told Dergasly has wanted the
passports "to liquidate crypto
currency and withdraw cash
from financial
institutions."
On March 30, U.S. District
Court for the Southern
District of New York
Magistrate Judge Sarah L. Cave
held a proceeding on releasing
Degasly, pending resolution of
an ICE immigration detainer.
Inner City Press covered it,
as the only media in the SDNY
Magistrates Court.
Dergasly,
who had primarily spoken in
Arabic, offered to sell the
passports for $3500 each.
Docketed on April
1, this: "ENDORSED LETTER as
to Hosame Dergasly addressed
to Magistrate Judge Sarah L.
Cave from Zawadi Baharanyi,
Esq dated 3/31/2022 re: Hosame
Desgasly, 22 Mag 2831. Ms.
Baharanyi writes to request
that Mr. Dergasly be released
upon his signature, the ankle
bracelet, and surrendering his
passport. This will give the
parties additional time to
arrange and complete the
co-signer process without
prolonging Mr. Desgasly's time
at the MDC Brooklyn.
Application DENIED WITHOUT
PREJUDICE to renewal if Judge
Broderick affirms the Court's
decision to grant Mr. Dergasly
release on conditions."
And Judge
Broderick did order Desgasly
released: "ORDER as to Hosame
Dergasly: ORDERED that the
Government's application for
Defendant's detention is
DENIED; IT IS FURTHER ORDERED
that all bail conditions set
by Judge Cave will remain in
place, (id.), but Defendant
must meet all of the
conditions prior to his
release; IT IS FURTHER ORDERED
that Defendant obtain a
landline at his place of
residence within 30 days, but
Defendant need not meet this
condition prior to his
release; IT IS FURTHER ORDERED
that Defendant be limited to
one electronic device; and IT
IS FURTHER ORDERED that
Pretrial Services be given
access to any electronic
device obtained by Defendant.
(Signed by Judge Vernon S.
Broderick).
