Article says he asked for a lawyer 4 times, got none.
Also I'd love to get the audio/video feed of the interaction. I imagine bullet-head cop holding the phone and demanding "the passcode"

Dude, learn about the laws of a Fascist country before you try and enter. Border agents do not have to let you access a lawyer, you actually have no legal rights, even as a US citizen.
No General Right: Travelers at a U.S. port of entry or border checkpoint do not have a constitutional right to have an attorney present or provided during routine questioning or administrative processing.
You want to act like a tough guy, enjoy your hourly cavity searches.
