8. Kairi Shepherd

Kairi Shepherd, a resident of America for 30 years was rejected for residency claim in the U.S by a local court and is facing deportation to India. She was earlier caught forging checks so as to make money for buying drugs and as per the Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act she is now sent back to her native.

Kairi, who is presently hiding in the U.S., does not have any relatives in India to look after her and she is worried that the immigration authorities will send her to India against her will. Moreover, she is a victim of multiple sclerosis.

Kairi was adopted by Erlene Shepherd when she was 3 months old from an Indian orphanage and she did not have US citizenship when Erlene died after 8 years of adoption.
