CHICAGO (REUTERS) - A United States (US) immigration judge in Chicago on Friday (March 24) granted asylum to Singaporean blogger Amos Yee, saying he was persecuted for his political opinions in the South-east Asian city-state.

Yee, 18, who had been jailed twice in Singapore, qualifies as a political refugee, according to a 13-page opinion by the US immigration judge.

Yee is immediately eligible for release after having been held in US immigration detention since Dec 16, 2016, according to his attorney, Ms Sandra Grossman, who is based in Bethesda, Maryland.
