For Rhino Horn Traffic Cherif Extradited From Senegal Now In NJ Jail With Interpreter Complaints

By Matthew Russell Lee, Patreon
BBC - Guardian UK - Honduras - The Source

SDNY COURTHOUSE, July 1 – Amara Cherif was indicted in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York as part of a conspiracy to traffic in rhinoceros horns and elephant ivory, and to launder money.

  He is a citizen of Guinea, but was arrested in and extradited to New York from Senegal.  

On July 1 SDNY Judge Gregory H. Woods held a telephone conference in the case. Inner City Press covered and tweeted it, here.  

Cherif is detained in the Essex County Jail in New Jersey. There, he cannot see his assigned lawyer in person, but rather only by video hook-up from the Federal Defenders of New Jersey. He has complaints about his initial interpreter, saying he'd prefer one from Guinea.  

 Judge Woods set a schedule for the case, with the next conference in September.

The case is US v. Cherif, 19-cr-338 (Wood).
