I can’t believe I’m making this tweet right now but the @TPSOperations has been ignoring our cries for help & for updates and this is how. 🧵 https://twitter.com/ShamsiiiTO/status/1301208982305017856
As many of you know my best friend/Sister Yasmin Mohamed Hersi went missing as of August 31st, 2020 at 2pm. We tried calling the night of but we were told we must wait 24 hours as she was over the age of 18. Okay we can do that. When we finally called to report her missing-
We were told that an officer would be sent to the house. That officer was M.Gahndi badge#9589 from 23 division. He conducted a search of the house, asked us a few questions and said he’d call us with updates as soon as possible. He had no partner with him. When I went outside-
I saw 3 more cruisers and cops standing around speaking to each other for about 10 minutes and they left after that. As if it was a call for a loud disturbance. Mind you this was Tuesday night. All that was done since then was a post on twitter. No one checked the CCTV footage-
We weren’t updated since we filed the report on what has been done so far. I’ve been calling and begging them to check cell towers, check footage, DO THEIR JOBS??? Nothing. I was told the detective working on our case was Detective Keller from 23 division. When I called for-
An update on our case today (Sept. 4th) I was told that detective Keller is not our Detective. Our ACTUAL detective is Detective Taylor. I asked for a badge ID I wasn’t given one. I asked for when he’d be available & I was told tmr. MIND YOU, I was told Keller was only available-
From 6pm-6am. I asked if he had any other type of help they said “No just call tmr and speak to detective Taylor”. She has been MISSING for almost a week now and no work has actually been done. No updates have been given BECAUSE they’re not doing anything-
Our NEXT DOOR NEIGHBOUR has a camera facing the streets and she gave us permission to get the cops to check it since TCHC cameras barely work as is. They haven’t done a thing about it. I’ve been calling everyday and I’m tired of being given the run around. @TPSOperations
Yasmins case number is 1654980. If you want to help in any way, give them a call/tweet them & urge them to take her case more seriously. The most important hours after a person goes missing is the first 72. It has been 104 hours since Yasmin went missing
Do your jobs and treat her case as you would treat a white mans. With urgency and respect. Her life is just as important as anyone else’s. @TPSOperations
This is info for our city’s councilman. Let’s Email, leave messages and tweet @MichaelFordTO to make him aware of the injustices happening in our community. We deserve equal treatment and I’m willing to die on this hill. I’m a RSSW advocacy is my hobby, they picked the wrong one.
Sample Script to email/call them:
