THE STORY OF IRANIAN DISSIDENT ZAHRA KAMALFAR, who has been trapped in the Moscow airport for months, has been updated. “Pajamas Media has been informed that two US attorneys (one Iranian- American) are now en route to Moscow to meet with US Embassy officials. They are attempting to obtain asylum for Kamalfar and her children in the US before she is returned to Iran. The same sources tell us the UNHCR has been obstructing these attempts by delaying in turning over necessary documents. The sources speculate that the UN Agency is embarrassed by its previous treatment of Kamalfar who could have left Russia months ago with their help.” UNHCR generally has plenty to be embarrassed about.
