He spoke no English, had no lawyer. An Afghan man's case offers a glimpse into US immigration court

FILE - Afghans wait inside the passport office in Kabul, Afghanistan, Wednesday, June 30, 2021. Afghans are lining up by the thousands at the Afghan Passport office to get new passports, possibly to leave, as they witness the final withdrawal of the U.S. military and its NATO allies. The Afghan man who speaks only Farsi represented himself in U.S. immigration court, and the judge denied him asylum. The Associated Press obtained a transcript of the hearing that offers a rare look inside an opaque and overwhelmed immigration court system where hearings are closed and judges are under pressure to move quickly given the backlog of 2 million cases.
