Calls for Accountability Grow After ICE Encounter Leaves Immigrant with Severe Injuries
Alberto Castañeda Mondragón, an immigrant, suffered severe injuries, including a fractured skull and memory loss, following an encounter with ICE agents in Minnesota. The incident occurred when ICE agents detained him, leading to allegations of excessive force. Castañeda Mondragón, who entered the U.S. legally but overstayed his visa, was reportedly beaten by agents during his arrest and while in custody. A federal judge later ruled his arrest unlawful and ordered his release. The case has sparked calls for accountability and transparency in ICE operations, with Minnesota officials and civil rights groups demanding an investigation.
