"Detainees allege abuse at Kansai holding center" (Zeit Gist, March 9) by David McNeill:
First of all let me say that I am not trying to prove that what (West Japan Immigration Control Center detainee Moses) Ssentamu said was right or wrong, since there is still no concrete evidence. I am writing this simply to inform you that there is in fact a problem within Japanese immigration.
I studied in Japan recently to complete my degree. My mother, an Indonesian citizen, came to visit me often while I was in Japan. Every time she arrived she would stay within the time period allotted by immigration at Narita.
