solemn application of the fact that he's jewish had affected his entire life in the public of georgia in terms of housing employment education his personal safety his interaction with government authorities who were in a ly so there was no protection instead what happens was happen was he was hit over climbed over the head by some people on motorcycles he went to the hospital there was abundant and abundant hemorrhaging found by the doctor  i'm not going to help you he went to the higher authorities who found through the sting operations that there was this extortion taking place but they offered no protection they just dropped the case saying there's no evidence even though this is the handing over the mark bills happened right in front of them  later he went to the police about this injury to his head you know whatever spat was found t he continued to call the police about the threats and there was no protection for him as there hadn't been any protection for his parents before terms of their housing employment and the government would like to think that's a personal problem how is it when the tax authorities are charging with more money because you're a jew how is it that the tax authorities won't prosecute anybody  that's coming after you and then physically abusing you because you don't pay more money and you try to exercise your rights of protection for being extorted how does that how does that become a personal sting  work out they need the person who was handed the money was it happened right in front of you there in front of the officer or the bank the bank the mark notes were indeed found on his person when they arrested him but he was let go he said look i didn't know what was in the envelope so they said they didn't have any evidence however those were mark notes that were talked about with the tax authorities which the government which the person who was caught also represented so i mean if he goes back to the republic of georgia i don't know how he's supposed to avoid paying taxes or dealing with the tax authorities the government would like us to believe that there is no pattern or practice of discrimination or  abuse of people from jewish nationality or public of georgia and i submitted almost information to the contrary the government had years this case was continued and continued by the immigration judge a master counter hearing a master counter hearing for a year and a half two years the government had plenty of opportunity to show other documents and in fact i think they came up with that was a report that in self indicated that there's a rising tide of anti semitism going on in the republic of georgia so  ask the government why when they talk about this not being a personal problem or no nexus they keep referring to the third circuit the seventh circuit the tenth circuit once or anywhere but the ninth circuit and in the ninth circuit we have cases that are such that go right to the which these remarks from this individual was discriminated against help me figure out whether that is sufficient to meet the persecution definition or not i mean what's the government's unwilling and able to protect him and he or he the herm did he claimed she suffered the immigration judge found that it didn't rise to the level of persecution you know prosecution bad name but very quickly there after a petition went to it's chief of police of interior affairs i believe it was they helped him set up a sting operation they the person can truly honestly believe he is not lying we believe that what happened to him happened for the reason that it happened but when you look at the objective evidence in the record it does not support that claim credibility goes to whether someone is fabricating again these people weren't fired by by you know citizens they were fired by the government and i think that the record establishes that they were fired due to these practic first of all we can't pull facts from the air or even mr gingerly himself and people who he's talked to back in the folk in georgia weren't sure this was a rumor that one of the gentlemen and one of the men involved in that from the tax department was fired this was a rumor which was never confirmed so the government can't confirm that the person was fired mr genuinely i can't even confirm that and he repeatedly told the immigration judge it was a rumor he wasn't sure the fact is the person who was in the sting operation who was caught with the bills marked bills in the envelope claimed that he didn't know what was in the envelope but like you're suggesting your honor that's kind of strange because the gentleman himself was sent by the tax authorities he was part of that same department and he was part of that overall group of persons who were trying to extort money because on the basis of the protective ground that he was jewish and he had to pay more as a result so what why isn't the past  persecution and the government their only response is look at a case of a charge a well there's a case in the ninth circuit thank you very much for a relevant case but it's not relevant in the sense that the film that's a filipino mother and daughter who were raped a horrible situation however they were raped not because of a protected ground anyone at the time it came down from the mount it was a common occurrence that females were raped and as soon as she and her family moved to the philippines moved to manila for a year they were safe nothing else the government only comes up with one document with the u s state department report which and also the second document which i adequately describe religious violence but lost over the atmosphere of impunity created by the georgian government's failure to act that's exactly what happened here and the the other document that they submitted shows that there's a rising  argument submitted by the government so help to cross that anti semitism is a problem and in georgia and that people are not prosecuted even when they're caught for example mr gingerly scase in the act nothing is done yes he had to leave the republic of georgia north to get an advanced education roll he did and he was never able to find a job in his field and he documents all the discrimination about employment so ultimately had to find his own job and create a partnership but his georgian partner no one ever extracted money extorted money from his georgian partner in the business only him he was the only one who had to pay extra taxes because even the georgian partner had no problem but when mr engine only left the country
