Four Cuban immigrants held at the Fort Bliss detention center in El Paso say they were among dozens driven to the U.S.-Mexico border and pressured by masked officials to cross or face imprisonment and beatings, with two reporting being beaten after initially refusing. The claims are part of a letter to ICE based on interviews with 45 detainees, alleging the agency violated federal rules on third-country deportations by not providing written notice or hearings. Internal ICE records reviewed by the Washington Post confirmed the men resisted removal but did not verify the abuse allegations; ICE declined a request to visit the facility. Advocates also cited broader complaints of inadequate food, hygiene and medical care at Fort Bliss, which a prior Post investigation found had violated 60 federal detention standards within its first 50 days of operation.
