Barrera Legal Group is proud to announce a major victory in immigration court—our client has been granted asylum after proving severe past persecution and a well-founded fear of future persecution in Peru due to his Indigenous Quechua ethnicity and membership in the social group of Indigenous Peruvians.
Our client endured brutal attacks, grave injuries, and repeated death threats from a racially motivated persecutor who continues to target him and his family with impunity. Despite clear danger, Peruvian authorities failed to provide protection due to pervasive anti-Indigenous bias.
Through thorough preparation and advocacy, we established that returning to Peru would expose our client to life-threatening harm and torture, qualifying him for asylum, withholding of removal, and CAT protection. The court recognized the severity of his persecution and the inability of his home country to protect him.
💡 Why This Matters
• Asylum provides safety and legal status to those who cannot return home due to persecution based on race, religion, nationality, political opinion, or membership in a particular social group.
• Indigenous communities worldwide often face systemic discrimination and violence with little government protection.
• Properly preparing and documenting these cases is critical to overcoming challenges in court.
