A federal judge in Massachusetts ruled that an Ecuadorean national taken into custody by ICE agents in Keene, New Hampshire, earlier this month is being unlawfully detained because he was denied a bond hearing. The ruling found that immigration authorities violated the man's rights by holding him without the opportunity to seek release on bond.
