According to immigration officials and attorneys, there has been an increase
in recent years of Indian nationals crossing into the U.S. through Mexico
— although they represent a small percentage of those detained overall.
Indian citizens are among thousands of migrants from Haiti, Africa and Asia
now trekking across Latin America, taking advantage of travel routes forged
by Latino immigrants.
By early August, about 380 of the 680 migrants at the Victorville facility
were Indian nationals, according to the Federal Bureau of Prisons, sent
there as civil rather than criminal detainees pending the outcome of their
immigration cases.
In addition, about 40% of the detainees at Immigration and Customs
Enforcement’s Imperial Valley facility are from India, a spokeswoman said.
Nearly 20% of detainees at ICE’s Adelanto processing center are Indian. |
