Dear UNHCR,
This is Zomorrod Amini, mother of Gholam Reza Shakouri, whose son has been taken hostage at Camp Liberty in Iraq since 26 years ago… A camp that, unlike its name, has caused years of separation between me and my son. I do not know how to express myself so you would understand what I am undergoing!
Can you put yourself in my shoes for a second and bear such painful separation from your son?
I swear to God that this is nothing humanistic! I hope I could have make you understand a slight amount of the pain all parents looking forward to their sons and daughters are tolerating.
I desperately ask you to give my son a telephone receiver or internet access so he can connect to outside world.
Many thanks and regards,
Zomorrod Amini
