Women refugees reporting domestic abuse say they were detained by DHS
Original: The women were all # refugees from # domesticAbuse . That’s what they told police officers, militant mercenaries, attorn
Women who said they were refugees fleeing domestic abuse were reportedly detained and interned by the US Department of Homeland Security, despite telling police officers, armed personnel and attorneys about their situation. The account claims their explanations made no difference to their treatment, drawing comparisons to historical paramilitary detention and raising concerns about how asylum seekers fleeing abuse are being handled at the US border.
Why now: Concerns are mounting over US immigration enforcement and the treatment of asylum seekers, particularly women fleeing domestic violence.
