A decision was expected in Lishan Akuma’s court trial in Washington DC today, but the judge has extended it to tomorrow morning.
The prosecutor and the attorney defending Lishan will present their final arguments at 9:30 AM and the judge is expected to rule on the case soon after that.
Today’s trial was attended by Kinijit leaders Wzt. Bertukan Mideksa and Ato Gizachew Shiferraw, as well as several Ethiopians who reside in the Washington DC area. The court room was filled to capacity by members of Kinijit DC Metro chapter and other concerned Ethiopians.
More people are expected in the court room to show solidarity with Lishan whose only crime is caring for the jailed leaders of Kinijit.
Please come to the court house tomorrow, Thursday, starting at 9:30 AM.
Place: District of Columbia Court, Room 210
500 Indiana Ave NW [see map]

Thanks, ER. It’s court room 210 not 212.
