University of Minnesota Student Detained by ICE After DUI, Sparks Lawsuit

A graduate student at the University of Minnesota, arrested on DUI charges, has been detained by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), prompting a lawsuit against the agency. The student, who remains unnamed in court documents, was detained after his visa was revoked following the DUI arrest, which occurred in March. The lawsuit filed claims that the student's detention was wrongful and that he feared he was being kidnapped during the process.

This incident has raised concerns over the treatment of international students by immigration authorities, especially in the wake of recent reports of increased detentions among this group beyond just those involved in protests. The University of Minnesota has been noted as a focal point for such cases, highlighting broader issues of how immigration laws are enforced against students on visas.

The legal action against ICE seeks to address these concerns and protect the rights of international students in the U.S. The outcome of this case could have significant implications for how similar situations are handled in the future, potentially affecting thousands of international students across the country.
