Guests from America and Afghanistan celebrate at a birthday party on Basir Mohmand and Basira Saai’s last night in Lincoln visiting their children, grandchildren and Basir’s American brother Dave Wilson (bottom left) and his family. Wilson helped Mohmand’s daughters flee Afghanistan and settled them in apartments a few minutes from his home.
