COURTHOUSE,
Dec 23 – A man from Senegal
who has been detained since
being arrested in November
charged with selling
counterfeit goods on Canal
Street and Broadway was
brought on December 19 before
U.S. District Court for the
Southern District of New York
Judge Arun Suramanian. Inner
City Press was there, and live
tweeted, here:
Judge
Sumramanian: Given that they
were operating under a
framework that this court and
100s of others have found to
be legally erroneous,
shouldn't Mr. Tall be
released? Even if you just
re-arrest him?
Judge
Subramanian: It is important
to get the law right. I need
to take the weekend
He took until
Tuesday evening: "ORDER: The
Court orders petitioner's
release within 24 hours. ...
As petitioner's counsel
conceded at the hearing, this
order does not preclude the
government from revoking
petitioners parole, and
arresting and detaining him in
the future, as long as it
follows the legally mandated
procedures that would apply.
(Signed by Judge Arun
Subramanian on 12/23/2025)."
