Tibetan Buddist - Asylum Case Tibetan Buddist - Asylum Case WGM represented Sangay, a Tibetan Buddhist persecuted and imprisoned by the Chinese authorities for his religious and political beliefs, in obtaining political asylum in August of 2002. Post-9/11 immigration policies and the endless bureaucracy of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) quashed our efforts to reunite Sangay with his family. We are happy to report that Sangay's wife and three children were granted permanent visas and arrived in New York last week, more than five years since their separation. The client is obviously overwhelmingly happy and very grateful for the endless efforts of Weil Gotshal and others on his behalf.
