Exclusive: critics accuse ICE of ‘outrageous’ and ‘unlawful’ detention of Korean man

At least one of the Korean workers swept up in a massive immigration raid on a Hyundai Motor factory site in Georgia last week was living and working legally in the US, according to an internal federal government document obtained by the Guardian.

Officials then “mandated” that he agree to be removed from the US despite not having violated his visa.

The document shows that immigration officials are aware that someone with a valid visa was among the people arrested during the raid at the Hyundai factory and taken to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (Ice) detention for removal proceedings, where the people arrested remained on Tuesday before expected deportation flights back to South Korea.

    Now good 'ol American automakers can take over and make 'good old boy subpar shitmobiles that no-one outside of USA would ever want, if they were ever even allowed to be sold outside USA since the safety standards are so bad.

    Unsafe at any speed.
