NYC: Shahid Ali Khan and His Family Will Not Face Deportation

HeadlineJun 27, 2017

In an update to one of last week’s stories on Democracy Now!, immigration advocates in New York City say Shahid Ali Khan and his family will not face deportation next week when the family reports to the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency office for a mandatory check-in. The Khans came to the United States in 1997 from Pakistan because their 2-year-old son needed an open-heart surgery. They now live in the Brooklyn neighborhood Little Pakistan. “Click here to see our full interview on the Khan family with Mohammad Razvi of the Council of Peoples Organization and Jennifer Gonnerman of The New Yorker magazine”:https://www.democracynow.org/2017/6/21/can_brooklyns_little_pakistan_survive_trump.
