“It’s really unclear whether they are being legally detained right now,” he stated.
Kagan stated the Division of Homeland Safety discovered a number of the males had a reputable worry of persecution or torture of their dwelling nations and have been going by the authorized course of to find out if they need to be deported.
“And yet DHS has decided, well, let’s just stop the deportation proceedings and arrest them anyway,” Kagan stated.
He stated the transfer strips the lads of their due course of that they are owed by the authorized system, and says it causes concern for the remainder of the nation.
