Ctv Winnipeg: Mother Entry and Support Education

ctv winnipeg: The urgency for this case is that their lives are in danger, the woman told CTV Winnipeg, according to CTV. They are at risk and could be persecuted anytime if they are found. The couple -- who did not want to be identified in order to protect the identities of their family -- are pleading for the government to grant the boy and his mother entry into Canada. The couple, who lived in Afghanistan until 2015, support education for women and girls in the country, as did their son. Their daughter-in-law and grandson were last in hiding in the city of Kabul but are constantly moving. They believe this support for women's rights is the reason their son was killed -- by the Taliban, they say -- and why their family could still be in danger. (www.immigrantscanada.com).
