ICE Arrests Indian Brothers After Immigration Interview
Two brothers from India were arrested by ICE after they went to a USCIS office for an interview about bringing their family to the US.
ICE said one brother had serious charges like gun crimes and reckless driving, and the other had gun crimes and was involved in a big car theft.
This happened while there is a lot of debate about ICE's actions, with some people saying they are too harsh and others saying they are necessary to keep the country safe.
Recently, ICE has been arresting more people, including many without criminal records.
Two Indian brothers were arrested by ICE after a Refugee/Asylee Family Petition interview in San Jose, California.
One brother had multiple felony firearms charges and reckless driving offenses, while the other had prior firearm offenses and involvement in a major vehicle theft operation.
The arrests coincide with increased scrutiny of ICE due to recent fatal shootings involving the agency.
ICE arrested a record 43,138 people in June 2025, with 37% of detainees having no criminal record.
The number of detainees has surged by 5,450 since early April, totaling 65,765 as of July 11, 2025.
