activist from the DRC

The asylum officer asked:
why are you applying for asylum?
why is government angry at you?
what were your activities, that made them angry?
why did the soldiers arrest your brother?
why did you sister do that?
When was she arrested?
when did mother tell you sister had been arrested
when did the phone threats start?
when did the threats stop?
what words did the man say?
after getting beat up in the country side, how did you get to your house?
Why did you believe the office?
where were you at the time of the arrrest?
detained how long?
what happened on the day of your release?
=
when did you start planning to come to USA?
when and how did you get  your passport?
no problems getting passport?
how did you get the passport? walk into embassy, or did your father walk in and get it for  you?
tell me about your second arrest: where were you at the time of your arrest, and what happened on the day of your release
what did they say to you, inside the prison?
after your release, where did you go, and how did you get there? walk? take a taxi? using what money?
=
what did you do, during the last 30 days in your country?
sit inside, and watch TV? walk outside in the park?
since you departed, has anyone in your country had any problems?
has anyone suffered physical harm? why?
how do you know about this?
Is there anything we have not talked about?
is there anything else?
what would happen if you return to your country?
did you report your beating to the police? why not?
why didn't your employer write a letter of support for you?
what do you do here in USA?
