Sacramento advocacy groups criticize ICE tactics after Afghan detentions

Описание: Sacramento advocacy groups say at least a dozen Afghan community members have been detained by ICE this week, with some arrested during routine check-ins and others at homes and local markets. The Council on American Islamic Relations and NorCal Resist report growing fear among Afghan families, while local leaders say many residents are afraid to leave their homes. Community members stress that the actions of one Afghan national accused in a Washington, D.C., shooting should not reflect on the broader community. ICE responded that arrests of illegal immigrants occur nationwide daily. Advocacy groups urge Afghan residents to seek legal help before any immigration appointments. Immediate support is available through the Sacramento FUEL Network.
