We, the undersigned are requesting the release of Alfred Perkoviq (23) and Kastrijot Perkoviq (21), after being incarcerated for their mandatory 90 day stay for being illegal immigrants from the broken country of Kosovo. These two young men should not be held in a jail while they are pending deportation to a country they know nothing about and therefore they are being punished for actions taken when they were minors. We request the two are given the opportunity to take responsibility as young adults with support from their family, friends and community.

The massive surge of support proves that people are finally fed up with the cruel detention of Alfred and Kastrijot. Immigration authorities need to stop hiding behind their red tape and release these two young men to their families immediately.

They have been here almost their whole lives. Kosovo isnt home to them. Be human please.

Ridiculous. Waste of tax money locking them up when they have a support system ready for them. Free them now!

Total garbage. They were just kids when they arrived. Give them a chance to stay in the only home they know.

SENDING THEM BACK TO A COUNTRY THEY DONT EVEN KNOW IS CRUEL. STOP THIS.

So unfair. Knew them in school and they are good guys. This punishment is way too much for a paperwork issue.

This is just wrong. They didnt choose to come here as kids and now they are being treated like hardened criminals. Let them go home to their family.
