West Africa #3

The Asylum Officer also asked:

1] when did you arrive in USA?
2] what has happened in your country since you departed?
3] Why did Korumah want to hurt you?
4] how many times were you hurt in your country?
5] how many threats did they make?
6] What words did they say, exactly? what language did they speak?
=
7] you were punched in 2009?
8] your son was threatened in 2012?
9] when you were punched, where were you?
[Why do you think the Asylum Officer jumps from 2009 to 2012, and then back to 2012?]
=
Why did Korumah threaten your son?
How did you find that out?

[does the Asylum Officer wonder if your entire story is fake? If so, what kinds of questions would he ask?]

10] when you were punched in 2009, who else was nearby? how come they were not hurt? why were you alone hurt, and no one else?
11] during the time that K was punching you, what did he say? what words, what language?
12] did you see blood anywhere? on your hand? on your shirt? on the floor?
13] why wasn't your sister hurt? [why would the asylum officer ask the same question, 20 minutes apart?]
14 why were you punched?
