COURTHOUSE,
Nov 24 – A man from Mali who
was detained by ICE on the
corner of Canal Street and
Church Street has a pending
habeas corpus petition in the
U.S. District Court for the
Southern District of New York,
where Inner City Press has
been following it since
October 2025.
It was
assigned to Judge Vernon S.
Broderick, who on October 27
ordered that Mamadou Bocoum
Ndoye not be transferred out
of the SDNY, EDNY or District
of New Jersey absent further
order from him.
The
petitioner's reply specifies
that his parents live in
France, informed he says he
received from the Malian
Embassy in
DC.
On January
15, 2026, still detained, he
wrote to Judge Broderick that
"Since I am not there to help,
our kids sometimes have to go
with my wife to the restaurant
in the evenings... While we
normally sell 100 plates of
food per day, we are now able
to sell only 20 plates of food
per day... Please make a
decision in my case and let me
go home to my
family."
The case is Ndoye
v. Joyce, et al., 1:25-cv-8856
(Broderick)
