Jeg prøver å finne ut hvem i USA jeg må kontakte, for å få kompansasjon, for det at jeg ble kasta ut av USA, uten noen god grunn, i 2005

last year, I got a letter from US Customs and Border

Protection, Maureen Dugan, Acting Executive Director, Admissibility and

Passengers Program, Office of Field Operations, from May 14 2009.

I've thought more about this, later last year, and I've been

in contact, with the American Embassy in Oslo.

They told me to contact you again.

Since, I can't see that I did anything wrong, going on a flight to Detroit,

even if I hadn't booked a hotel in advance, since I had about £10.000 or 20.000

$ on my Visa-card, from my study-loan, for some studies that I had to interupt.

But then I was free to use this loan in which way I wanted to, this is normal

in Norway, that one can use ones study-loan, to other purposes than studying,

if conditions change, regarding ones study-situation etc., after one have

received or applied for a study loan, from the Norwegian Government, like it

did in my case.

So I think it is unfair, that I had to go back to Europe,

since I can't see that I have done anything wrong.

I also had to buy a new ticket, that cost more than or around 2.000 $.

I told the American Embassy in Oslo, that I've been using

around 20.000 NOK or around 4.000 $ on airplane-tickets, to and from America.

And I wasn't allowed in to the USA even if I'm a law abiding Norwegian

citizien, who has never been denied entry more or less anywhere before.

And also, my suitcase, was delayed for one day, when I went back to Europe, and

Oslo.

(Since US Homeland Security had found a lighter, in my suit-case).

So I had to stay on a hotel in Oslo, (Gardermoen), for one night, waiting for

my suitcase.

And that hotel cost 1.000 NOK a night, or around 200 $.

So my expenes where around 4.200 $ for plane tickets and

hotel.

And what did I get in return?

Nothing, I didn't get to spend a single second in the USA.

So I think I should be given compensation from the US

Government, for this poor treatment and travel expenses.

In addition, I've a lot of time, on sending you e-mails to complain about rude

treatment, from US Immigration Control, on Detoit International Airport.

So I think I should be given more compansation, than just flight and hotel

ticket costs.

I mentioned the figure 100.000 NOK, as a minimum, of what I think I should be

compensated, for bad treatment, from the American Government.

I also know that compensations are high, in the USA, and if

an American citizen had been treated like this, in eg. Norway, then 'hell would

have been loose'.

And compensations in the USA are generally high, so I don't

think 100.000 NOK or 20.000 $ is much to ask for, in compensation, considering

the poor and unfair treatment I've received from the American Government, in

connection with my flight to Detroit, in 2005, with Lufthansa, from Frankfurt.

The check for at least the mentioned amount, can be sent to:

Erik Ribsskog

Flat 3

5 Leather Lane

Liverpool

GB-L2 2AE

UK

I'm also sending a copy of this e-mail to the Norwegian

Foreign Ministry, to whom I've also complained about the way I was treated by

the American Imigration Control in Detriot, earlier.

I hope this is alright and thank you very much in advance

for you help!

Sincerely,

Erik Ribsskog
