Dominican Republic,
China and Jamaica
top New York City
immigrants
By Kimmy Blair
Contributing Writer
Dominican Republic, China and Jamaica are
among the foreign nations where an esti-
mated 3.2 million immigrant New Yorkers
list as their country of origin, according to
recent census report.
The 3.2 million is the largest number in
the City’s history.
According to data from the U.S. Census
Bureau America Community Survey 2017
recently published in the Mayor’s Office of
Immigrant Affairs’ Annual Report for 2018,
the number of immigrants from Mexico has
been on the decline in New York City while
populations from the Dominican Republic
and China continue to grow.
The following numbers represent the
data from the Top 10 countries where New
York City immigrant residents hail from:
Dominican Republic, 449,338 or 14.3 per-
cent; China 365,885 or 11.6 percent; Ja-
maica 169,067 or 5.4 percent; Mexico
156,212 or 5.0 percent; Guyana 134,120 or
4.3 percent; Ecuador 128,000 or 4.1 percent;
Bangladesh 95,566 or 3.0 percent; Haiti
84,358 or 2.7 percent, and India 78,842 or
2.5 percent.
The report also revealed that the current
undocumented immigrant population in
NewYork City is an estimated 477,000, a de-
cline from 672,000 in 2008.
“This mirrors national trends where the
overall undocumented population has been
on the decline since 2008. This can be the
2008 housing market collapse, improved
economic conditions in Mexico, as well as
heightened enforcement at the border,” the
Woman arrested for
illegal silicone injections
B ronx District Attorney Darcel D.
Clark announced that a Bronx
woman has been indicted for Assault
and other charges for allegedly car-
rying out an illegal silicone cosmetic
procedure on a 39-year-old woman.
The defendant allegedly con-
ducted a dangerous, illegal cosmetic
procedure that left the victim with
substantial pain.
According to the investigation,
on or about February 10, 2018, in the
defendant’s home, Castillo con-
ducted an unauthorized cosmetic
procedure and injected silicone sub-
stance into the body of a 39-year-old
Bronx woman.

report observes.
Immigrants comprise nearly 37 percent
of the city’s population and 44 percent of its
workforce. The foreign-born population re-
sides in all corners of the five boroughs. Cer-
tain neighborhoods, primarily in Queens and
Brooklyn and parts of the Bronx and Man-
hattan, have particularly high concentrations
of immigrant residents. All five boroughs
have significant immigrant populations, in-
cluding undocumented immigrants.
Approximately 56 percent of immigrant
New Yorkers are naturalized U.S. citizens.
An estimated 660,000 immigrant New York-
ers who are lawful permanent residents
(such as green card holders) are potentially
eligible to be naturalized.
The city has significant linguistic diver-
sity: more than 200 languages are spoken by
residents across the five boroughs. The top
10 languages of foreign-born New York City
residents who are Limited English Proficient
(LEP), meaning that they speak English less
than “very well,” are: Spanish, Chinese,
Russian, Bengali Korean, Haitian, and Ara-
bic.
Nearly half of immigrant New Yorkers,
age 25 or older, have attended some college
or have graduated from college. These rates
are notably higher for naturalized U.S. citi-
zens.
About 33 percent of undocumented im-
migrants living in New York City have less
than a high school diploma, compared to ap-
proximately 32 percent of those with green
cards and other status, 21 percent of natural-
ized U.S. citizens, and 10 percent of U.S.-
born citizens .
The botched procedure, which
was done in an effort to enhance the
buttocks of the victim, left her with
extensive infections and pain in her
buttocks and thighs. The victim also
has to undergo surgery to remove
most of the tissue in the affected area.
The defendant, who does not have
a license to practice medicine or cos-
metic surgery, was indicted in second-
degree Manslaughter, Criminally
Negligent Homicide and Unautho-
rized Practice earlier this year for a
separate procedure in which a woman
died. Anyone with information about
other possible victims of the defen-
dant are encouraged to call the 43rd

Corrections officers charged with
illegally strip-searching women
MANHATTAN:
S ix female corrections officers have been
charged with illegally strip-searching
women who visited the Manhattan Detention
Center, the Manhattan District Attorney's of-
fice announced Monday.
According to court documents, the cor-
rections officers routinely strip-searched fe-
male visitors without their consent. This
included forcing the visitors to remove their
pants and underwear, touching the visitors’
breasts, and examining the visitors’ private
areas.
Leslie-Ann Absalom 53, a former DOC
captain, DOC officers Daphne Farmer, 49,
Jennifer George, 32, Lisette Rodriguez, 51,
Alifa Waiters, 45, and Latoya Shuford, 36,
have been all charged with official miscon-
duct, unlawful imprisonment, conspiracy and
various counts of filing false documents.
In order to cover up the unlawful
searches, four of the officers filed false pa-

Williams, son of Grenadian immi-

to fill his 45th councilmatic seat is set for
May 14th.
Among those in the race are:

“There is no excuse for violating the
human rights of New Yorkers visiting our
City’s jails," District Attorney Cy Vance said
. "As alleged, these officers flagrantly abused
their power when they ignored their training
and subjected visitors to humiliating and un-

cover up their actions by forcing visitors to
sign consent forms under false pretenses, and
repeatedly lying in official documents.

Lawyer Gets five years in prison

for illegal immigration scheme
A n immigration attorney based
in Queens, has been sen-
tenced to five years in prison in
connection with operating a
scheme to submit more than 100
fraudulent asylum applications for
Caribbean and other immigrants to
immigration authorities in the
United States.
Andreea Dumitru, 43, was sen-
tenced on Wednesday in Southern
District Court of New York.
Dumitru was also sentenced to
one year of supervised release, and
ordered to forfeit US$157,500.
She was convicted on Novem-
ber 19, 2018, of asylum fraud,
making false statements to immi-
gration authorities and aggravated
identity theft following a two-
week trial.
Between 2013 through 2017,
Dumitru operated a scheme to sub-
mit fraudulent forms in connection
with applications for asylum.
The now disbarred attorney
also forged the signatures of some
of her clients.
Manhattan U.S. Attorney Ge-
offrey S. Berman said: “Using lies
and forgery, Andreea Dumitru, an
immigration attorney, cheated the
nation’s asylum program. For her
crimes, Dumitru will now spend
five years in prison.”

tem is hurting our public safety and econ-
omy,” said California Attorney General
Xavier Becerra, whose state is the nation’s
largest legal pot shop.
The bill “would reward taxpayers and
small and local licensed businesses who
play by the rules,” he said in a statement.
The conflict between state and federal
law has left many growers and sellers in the
burgeoning pot industry in a legal dilemma,
shutting them out of everyday financial
services like opening a bank account or ob-
taining a credit card.
It also has forced many businesses to
operate only in cash — sometimes vast
amounts — making them ripe targets for
crime.
The pending bill would allow pot busi-
nesses to access loans, lines of credit and
other banking services while sheltering fi-
nancial institutions from prosecution for
handling pot-linked money.
In a letter to congressional leaders, the
attorneys general also argue that under ex-
isting law, authorities are less able to track
potential financial crimes and it is more dif-
ficult for businesses to pay — and for states
to collect — tax deposits.
The number of banks and credit
unions willing to handle pot money is
growing, but they still represent only a tiny
fraction of the industry.

MOTHERS’ DAY FEATURE

Honoring Faces of Proud Mothers
Motherhood
M other's Day is a holiday celebrated
annually as a tribute to all mothers
and motherhood. It is celebrated on various
dates in many parts of the world. Although
the origins of the holiday date back to the
times of the ancient Greeks and Romans,
the modern form of the celebration of
Mother's Day in the United States began in
the early 20th century.
It was first celebrated in 1908 in
Grafton, West Virginia, when Anna Jarvis
held a memorial for her mother Ann
Reeves Jarvis who, in turn, many years ear-
lier had founded Mothers' Day Work Clubs
in five cities. Anna Jarvis began a cam-
paign to make the Mother's Day a national
holiday and she succeeded in 1914 when
the U.S. President Woodrow Wilson pro-
claimed the second Sunday in May a
Mother's Day.
Nowadays Mother's Day (or a similar
event) is celebrated in more than 150 coun-
tries around the world, although at different
dates. Many countries, including the USA,
Canada, Australia, Japan and many Euro-
pean countries, celebrate Mother's Day on
second Sunday of May. On the other hand,
in many African countries it is celebrated
on 21 March. Most of the Mother's Day
dates around the world fall in May or in
March.

CARIBBEAN NEWS
Petition to lower cost
of regional travel
gathering steam
T he cost of intra-regional travel has become
a pain for most CARICOM citizens and a
huge talking point considering the financial cri-
sis affecting LIAT airline.
In an effort to put pressure on governments
a petition was started in April by the Caribbean
Citizens Against High Intra-Regional Travel
Taxes, to force regional leaders to consider al-
ternatives to the current taxes, fees and charges
(TFCs) structure.
Noting that numerous studies have high-
lighted the link between high taxes and a result-
ing lower demand for travel, the group is of the
view governments are in position to lowers the
TFC’s structure but are unwilling to do so.
“Clearly, governments are ... hesitant be-
cause of the amount of revenue currently gen-
erated by these TFCs. We believe that existing
revenue does not have to be foregone, but rather
collected via different taxes already in place
when visitors visit and spend money in the dif-
ferent economies.”
During the Central Bank of Barbados eco-
nomic review last week, it was revealed that re-
gional arrivals numbers have dropped
significantly. Trinidad and Tobago, which is
usually Barbados largest Caribbean source mar-
ket, registered a ten percent decline while other

CARICOM countries fell off by 4.6 percent.
With over 10,000 signatures already se-
cured the group has set a target for 20,000 sig-
natures - after which the petition will be
forwarded to the CARICOM Secretariat as well
as the office of each country’s Prime Minister.
“When the signatures collected reaches a
point where we believe that CARICOM Gov-
ernments are unable to ignore the issue any
longer, we will be printing hard copies of the pe-
tition including the names and origin countries
of the thousands of Caribbean people who are
demanding change. This will be accompanied
by a compilation of the taxes and fees imposed
by each government and a letter making the
strong case for dialogue on the issue.”
So far signatures have been pouring in
from Caribbean territories as well the US, UK
and Canada. Figures show Barbados has been
leading the petition and the group noted this was
most likely due to the fact that the country has
one of the highest TFCs structures in the region.
“Trinidad and Tobago and Jamaica are sec-
ond and third respectively, as they are among
the biggest populations in the region. We as-
sume they are showing an interest in reduced
TFCs to facilitate greater movement north and
south.
Seaga
hospitalised
in Florida
R eports have emerged that former Ja-
maican Prime Minister, Edward
Seaga, has been admitted to hospital in
Florida in the United States in serious con-
dition.
According to sources, Seaga was trav-
elling when he fell ill, and was taken to
hospital, where he was admitted.
The former Jamaica Labour Party
(JLP) leader turns 89 on May 28.
He served as prime minister of Ja-
maica between 1980 and 1989.
Seaga famously won a landslide vic-
tory over Michael Manley’s People’s Na-
tional Party (PNP) in the hotly contested
October 1980 General Elections on a ‘de-
liverance’ agenda.
The JLP comfortably remained in of-
fice for nine years, as the PNP boycotted a
snap election that was called in 1983.
Seaga is the last surviving member of
the framers of the Jamaican Constitution.
He served as JLP leader for 31 years, and
as Member of Parliament (MP) for West
Kingston for 43 years, from 1962 until his
retirement in 2005, the longest ever by a
Jamaican politician.
His retirement from active politics in
2005 marked the end of an era, as he was
the last of Jamaica’s serving politicians to
have entered public life before independ-
ence in 1962, as he was appointed to the
Legislative Council (now the Senate) in
1959.
Seaga is credited with building much
of the financial and planning infrastructure
of the country after independence, as well
as similarly influencing its art and craft
spheres, along with awareness of the na-
tional heritage.

Blatter to sue FIFA
Former FIFA boss Ssepp Blatter plans to
sue world football's governing body and
his successor for allegedly spreading "false
information" and damaging his reputation.
Blatter told a Swiss news maga-
zine quote: "I will take legal actions
against Gianni Infantino and FIFA". The
83-year-old former president was sus-
pended from FIFA in 2015 amid a gigantic
corruption scandal that rocked world foot-
ball to its core.
But he claimed in Wednesday's inter-
view that statements issued by FIFA re-
garding alleged payments he had received
contained false information. He alleged
that FIFA had spread "fake information
and a deceitful representation" of the facts.

N.J sexual abuse
victims get more
time to sue
T he New Jersey Senate Judiciary Com-
mittee hearing on legislation that
would expand the statute of limitations al-
lowing victims of sex assault to sue insti-
tutions. The hearing was at the NJ
Statehouse in Trenton, N.J. March, 7.
Gov. Phil Murphy will sign the broad-
est law in the nation Monday that will
vastly expand the amount of time victims
of sexual assault will be allowed to bring
a lawsuit against predators and the non-
profit organizations that employed them.
Murphy has hinted he generally sup-
ports expanding New Jersey’s two-year
statute of limitations for civil lawsuits, but
had not said affirmatively he would sign
the bill the state Legislature approved in
March.
Sen. Joseph Vitale, D-Middlesex, the
bill’s prime sponsor, said he received con-
firmation Murphy was signing the bill on
Monday, the last day he had to act before
the law took effect automatically.
