Just days after being released to house arrest in
Bolivia, Brooklyn businessman Jacob "Yanky" Ostreicher was the special, surprise guest on
The Dov Hikind Show, which aired at 11 PM last night on WMCA. During the 30-minute phone interview, Yanky thanked not only
the many people who worked tirelessly to secure his freedom, but also
those whose support and encouragement gave him the strength to go on while
in Bolivia’s brutal Palmalosa prison.
Yanky recognized Assemblyman Hikind as the first government official who did more than just
"monitor" his case--he expressed his profound gratitude to Dov calling him “an incredible human being.” You can listen to the full interview
here.
