My son was not traveling with Mae Thomas

DEAREDITOR,

Iamwritingtoprovideacorrection to an article published in your online edition on April 27, 2023 titled “Permanent Secretary (PS), Mae Toussaint Thomas visa revocation, ‘roughing-up’wasa“normalroutine”PresidentAli.”

The article erroneously stated that my son was part of the delegation that wasinvolvedinthetemporarydetention of PS Thomas at Miami International Airport.

I want to clarify that my son was not part of the delegation, nor was he traveling to China on the mentioned date, after, or has ever traveled to China

Iappreciatetheopportunitytomake thiscorrection,andIhopethatyouwill publish this letter to ensure that your readershaveaccurateinformation.

Sincerely,

VirjanandDépoo Ambassador
