COURTHOUSE,
Dec 5 – A woman from Guatemala
who as a member with the Union
Cambio Nacional party was
targeted and fled to the US in
2024 was detained by ICE in 26
Federal Plaza on December 5.
She filed a habeas corpus
petition the same day in the
U.S. District Court for the
Southern District of New York,
where Inner City Press found
it.
The
petition says Lesbia Maribel
Perz Agustin's husband was
killed and her house was shot
up and had tear gas thrown in.
It says that the explanation
given to her upon her detained
was "new laws."
The
requests include immediate
release and attorney's fees.
The case is
Agustin v. Joyce, et al.,
1:25-cv-10122 (Unassigned)
