Three years after the U.S. exit from Afghanistan, the human toll is painfully clear. Managing Attorney Shala Gafary, spoke to The Washington Examiner and shared the story of our client Mohammad, an Afghan man who narrowly escaped deportation despite surviving ISIS-K and Taliban attacks. While his case was reopened and his asylum granted, many others haven’t been as fortunate. We must not forget those still at risk.
