SDNY Mag Court Exclusive, March 30 – Hosame Dergasly was arrested after offering to selling fake passports from Guatamela, Germany and Turkey to an undercover Federal agent who told Dergasly has wanted the passports "to liquidate crypto currency and withdraw cash from financial institutions."
On March 30, U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York Magistrate Judge Sarah L. Cave held a proceeding on releasing Degasly, pending resolution of an ICE immigration detainer. Inner City Press covered it, as the only media in the SDNY Magistrates Court.
Dergasly, who had primarily spoken in Arabic, offered to sell the passports for $3500 each.
Now, with the ICE detained resolved, he's being released on a bond with one co-signer.
No District Judge has yet been assigned; Inner City Press will continue to follow the case, which is US v. Dergasly, 22-mj-2831 (Cave)
