Exclusive,
Nov 22 – A man from El
Salvador who says he fears
persecution from the
government of that country was
arrested on November 14 while
walking his sister's dogs in
The Bronx.
He filed a habeas
corpus petition in the U.S.
District Court for the
Southern District of New York,
where Inner City Press found
it. His
lawyer noted that his client
had a hearing on the merits of
his political asylum claim
scheduled for November
21.
The judge to
which the case was assigned,
Dale E. Ho, citing his own
Lopez Benitez v. Francis
decision, ordered this
petitioner Ronald Alexander
Mejia Segovia released by 5 pm
on Saturday, November
22.
On November
22 the US Attorney's Office
wrote in that he had been
released. A November 25
hearing was canceled.
The case
is, or was, Mejia Segovia v.
Joyce, et al., 1:25-cr-9551
