Cuban Man Detained by ICE After 20 Years Under Supervision
Jul 1, 2025 · Angola, Louisiana, Cuba
Edilberto Suarez Vergara, a Cuban citizen who had been under ICE supervision since 2006, was detained by ICE in July 2025. He was held at Camp 57 in Angola, Louisiana, then transferred to Arizona where he was scheduled for deportation to Mexico. The court granted a temporary restraining order blocking his removal, finding he was denied proper notice and hearing before being deported to a third-party country where he has no connections.
