Daylo F.S.: Cuban asylum seeker who followed all release rules detained again by ICE

A Cuban man was re-detained after a traffic stop following more than a year of freedom on humanitarian parole while his asylum case proceeded; a judge ordered his immediate release, finding the re-detention violated due process.

May 19, 2026Country of origin: Cuba

A Cuban national was initially detained upon entering the United States on March 8, 2024, then released on humanitarian parole. After living at liberty for over a year while following all conditions of release and filing an asylum application, he was re-detained by ICE on May 19, 2026, following a routine traffic stop. The court found his re-detention violated due process rights because the government provided no finding of changed circumstances showing he was a flight risk or danger to the community, and granted his habeas petition ordering his immediate release.
