Read this tale in English:An Iranian man is arrested by ICE while traveling to a gym in Oregon.
According to their attorney and the court records, an Iranian citizen in the Yamhill County was taken to the gimnasio on the morning of the month when the Immigration and Control of Aduanas (ICE, as it is known in English) officers detained and arrested him.
According to their attorney, Michael Purcell, he was briefly detained in Portland before being moved to the regional detention center in Tacoma.
On the other hand, the Department of National Security of the European Union announced that ICE had arrested 11 Iranian citizens nationwide at the end of the previous week who were found illegally in the country in an attempt to actively comply with President Trump’s mandate to protect the nation.
Alabama, Arizona, Texas, Mississippi, Colorado, Minnesota, California, and New York were the locations of these arrests.
The most recent arrest in Oregon was of a man who, according to information, was taken from the phone by ICE agents. Additionally, according to attorneys from Innovation Law Lab, ICE agents arrested an Afghan man near his home on March 2 after he returned from an appearance in the Portland Immigration Tribunal.
In a videotaped arrest last week, armed federal agents apprehended and detained a Colombian immigrant as they were being driven through the Portland center following their appearance before the Immigration Tribunal.
According to Purcell, the Iranian man, who is only listed in court records as S.F., has a registration on file at an ICE facility in Portland for the past month.
The man’s wife said that ICE agents had taken her husband away around seven in the morning while they were driving from their home to their gym, Purcell said.
Purcell was asked to appear before the Tribunal de Distrito de EE. UU. in Portland at 10:09 a.m. with a petition and a temporal restriction order to challenge the detention and deportation, he said. Purcell then directed the ICE building in Portland’s south to see his client, he said.
However, it was twenty-five minutes past eleven-55 a.m., Purcell said.
Their client has been sent to the ICE North-east Processing Center in Tacoma.
The court of EE. UU. Mustafa T. Kasubhai held a videotaped hearing on the motion of Purcell to impose a temporal restriction order to force the government to transfer S.F. de Tacoma to any other detention facility in the country.
Purcell argues that the procedure violates S.F.’s right to due process under the Quinta Enmienda.
“It’s against the law,” he said. It is abusing the system and succeeding in every country.
Kasubhai ordered federal employees to give written notice 48 hours in advance of the federal employees transporting the man outside of the state of Washington, along with an explanation of why they believe the translation is necessary.
If a petition is filed at the tribunal before the person arrested by ICE agents is transferred outside of the state, the Tribunal de Distrito de EE. UU. in Oreg maintains the jurisdiction of habeas corpus.
The immigration attorneys fear that ICE agents are starting to detain asylum seekers on the street and are not waiting for them to appear for registration at an ICE office or to be cited in the Portland Immigration Tribunal in order to thwart their attorneys’ efforts by filing these petitions with the appropriate urgency.
According to court records, S.F. faces deportation procedures in the early 2000s and seeks forgiveness by requesting asylum. On August 14, 2002, the asilo was denied, but a request was made to the Immigration Commission. According to his attorney, his appeal was denied on January 2, 2004, and he became the subject of a definitive deportation order.
According to Purcell, the government has not carried out this final deportation order in the last two decades.
Purcell is now implying that his client’s repentance and detention in Iran are due to the changed conditions following the US bombing of Iran’s nuclear facilities in the Madrugada del Domgo, so establishing a de facto state of war between the US and Iran.
According to Purcell in his petition, an immigrant may typically submit a motion to the government asking it to review a final deportation order within 90 days of the order, but the government also permits further motions based on changes in the country’s conditions.
According to the petition, S.F.’s lengthy stay in the United States, his American citizenship, his two sons, all American citizens, and his conversations with Christians all increase the likelihood that he will be arrested, tortured, or perhaps killed in Iran.
According to their attorneys, ICE agents arrested another asylum seeker, Martes, a 24-year-old Afghani man who had returned to his home in the Portland-Beaverton area after attending his scheduled hearing at the Portland Immigration Tribunal.
Known only as E-M in court documents, he was exonerated of all charges for being a member of the minor’s chiita musulmana from the country and coming to the United States in search of protection. He entered California in 2023 and wrote his defense in a new petition.
Request asilo at the Portland Immigration Tribunal on May 29, 2024. According to two of their attorneys, Stephen Manning and Jordan Cunnings of Innovation Law Lab, they have completed all of their court and legal deadlines and appear as requested for their hearing at the Immigration Tribunal in Martes.
They claim that their arrest was unjustified and that the government of the European Union is punishing people for violating their rights by using the system of detention of immigrants.
After a Colombian man was arrested last week and his car was found abandoned on a Portland street, his attorneys agreed that his petition to overturn his arrest would be transferred to the District of Eastern Washington’s jurisdiction because ICE agents had already transferred it to the Tacoma detention center before the attorneys presented it to the federal court in Oregon, overturning his arrest.
