尽管受到"反酷刑公约"保护, 但被非法拘留超过一年的白俄罗斯男子安德烈·班克维奇 (Andrei Bankevich) 被一名法官命令释放. A judge ordered ICE to release Andrei Bankevich, a Belarusian man unlawfully detained over a year past the legal limit despite being protected under the Convention Against Torture.

美国移民和海关执法局非法拘留安德烈·班克维奇, 他是白俄罗斯人. 在"禁止酷刑公约"下获得保护的权利超过了法律规定的人可以被驱逐出境6个月的期限. A federal judge in Iowa ruled that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement unlawfully detained Andrei Bankevich, a Belarusian man granted protection under the Convention Against Torture, for over a year beyond the legal six-month limit for those with final deportation orders. 班克维奇于2025年2月因酒驾罪在明尼苏达州被捕, 因ICE过度拥挤而转移到爱荷华. Bankevich, arrested in Minnesota in February 2025 on a drunk driving charge, was transferred to Iowa due to ICE overcrowding. 尽管移民局承认拘留是非法的, 但官员拒绝在没有法院命令的情况下释放他. Despite ICE admitting the detention was illegal, officials refused to release him without a court order. 命令立即释放他, 并批评缺乏证据支持ICE的持续移除努力. Judge Rebecca Goodgame Ebinger called the government’s inaction “untenable,” ordered his immediate release, and criticized the lack of evidence supporting ICE’s claims of ongoing removal efforts. 裁决强调移民执法中的系统性问题, 并需要在没有司法干预的情况下遵守法律限制. The ruling highlights systemic issues in immigration enforcement and the need for compliance with legal limits without judicial intervention.
