Dorothy is the sister of Dan Parvaz. Dan is a doctoral student in
linguistics at the University of New Mexico. Dan works as a
computational linguist at Mitre Corporation. The family is asking people
to contact the Syrian government and politely request her release. For
people in the US, the Syrian Embassy in Washington DC contact
information is: as1 at syrembassy.net or by phone 202-232-6313 ext. 139
Thank you for your help,
