The Guatemala government announced the actions that it will implement in the case of Guatemalan that remained eight hours in a tree to avoid being arrested by agents of the United States Immigration and Customs Control Service (ICE), in Texas.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MINEX) reported this Friday, May 2 that it will provide consular protection to Raúl Ical, 29 years old, who was arrested in San Antonio, Texas, United States, by ICE agents, after having remained eight hours in a tree.
According to the Minex, the Guatemala Consulate in McAllen, Texas, follows up the case of Guatemalan apprehended on April 29 in the city of San Antonio by migration agents.
The Foreign Ministry explained that the Connational, originally from Chahal, Alta Verapaz, was intercepted by migratory agents after trying to flee, and was subsequently transferred to a detention center in Karnes City, Texas.
“The consular mission remains in communication with the authorities of the place to be able to interview it and verify its health status, as well as provide all the assistance you need, including communication with your relatives,” said the Minex.
