David, who told Amnesty International in 2021 that his son had been detained and deported in 2020,

was diagnosed with cancer in August 2022. At the time, he told Amnesty International: “I’m going

through a difficult time. I’ve been diagnosed with cancer and people who live undocumented in Curaçao

don’t have access to public healthcare or private healthcare insurance. I need to go to a country where I

can get a treatment.” David died in November 2022.
