The moth­er of Alian­na Sama­roo, who was ar­rest­ed one week ago on a Pre­ven­tive De­ten­tion Or­der (PDO) af­ter is­su­ing pub­lic posts on so­cial me­dia deemed to be prej­u­di­cial to pub­lic safe­ty, is ur­gent­ly beg­ging Prime Min­is­ter Kam­la Per­sad-Bisses­sar to for­give her.

The tear­ful plea for her daugh­ter to be re­turned to the fam­i­ly in time for Christ­mas by He­len Vasquez-Ros­ales was aimed at the very per­son whom Sama­roo had al­leged­ly di­rect­ed on­line threats to one week ago.

Stand­ing on the front porch of her home in Va­len­cia yes­ter­day, Vasquez-Ros­ales re­peat­ed­ly begged Per­sad- Bisses­sar to in­ter­vene in the mat­ter.
