Hellol.Last month,ICE agents dressed as police entered Demba's home at 9:00 a.m. and arrested our good friend Demba Bagayoko.Demba has lived in Ann Arbor for 6 years,and has developed a network of close friends.He is a kind and generous soul,with many good qualities too numerous to list here.

He has worked continuously his entire 18 years he has been in the U.S.,and upon his release will continue to be a productive member of society(and do a lot of fishing!).

The judge set bond at $7000 and we are asking for your help to free him.

TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE

We need to raise the bond money by April 11th,the date of Demba's hearing.

If we don't raise the money,Demba may never regain his freedom in the U.S..He will remain in detention and will be on the fast-track to deportation.

If we can raise the bond money,Demba will be freed.His deportation process will be greatly slowed,and we will have a much better chance of stopping his deportation once and for all.We are hoping for the best,and believe we can do this.

Thank you kindly for any consideration
