Readers:

The unedited e-mail came from a source in The Gambia.

My source: In your e-mail below, you did mention that the the "first flight
(for the Hajj) is off". Now could you please clarify what you imply?

In other words, are you saying that the flight has been cancelled, or has it
already taken off/departed for Mecca?
