if necessary he could board a Filipino aircraft in Japan, or get into a Filipino diplomatic vehicle at the gates of the detention centre, or go into the 'custody' of a Filipino diplomat before walking out of his cell. These are what diplomats calls 'modalities' -banana note] ***BEGIN ARTICLE*** RP can’t help Fischer, says immigration official Updated 06:00pm (Mla time) Aug 16, 2004 By Martin Marfil Inquirer News Service THE BUREAU of Immigration admitted on Monday that it could not help American chess grandmaster Bobby Fischer detained in Japan amid a request that he be granted asylum in the Philippines where his Filipina wife and child are staying. In an interview with reporters, Immigration Commissioner Alipio Fernandez said Fischer, who had been held by Japanese authorities after allegedly trying to use canceled travel documents, had to enter the Philippines first before the government could act on his case. Fernandez said Fischer, married to a Filipina, could apply for temporary residency once he arrives in the country. But since Fischer’s travel documents were canceled and he could not travel, the problem remained, Fernandez said. Officials at the Narita International Airport in Japan detained Fischer last June 16 for using a canceled US passport. He is wanted by US authorities for allegedly violating sanctions against Yugoslavia where he played a match against archrival Russian Boris Spassky in 1992. Filipino chess grandmaster Eugene Torre has asked President Macapagal- Arroyo to grant Fischer asylum in the Philippines where he has been living for several years. ***END ARTICLE*** -- banana |
