"Our client is extremely concerned that she has recently recieved a message from her son, written in April, which indicates
he is not receiving any of her letters. She has written more than thirty-two letters to him, most of which have been sent
through the U.S. Government, but it appears these are not being passed on to him.

Our client also continues to want her son to have access to a lawyer and remains extremely concerned at his unlawful
detention without being given such access or due process or being charged with any offence or told what will happen to
him. This is a/l in gross violation of international human rights law."
