Zia, an Afghan interpreter who risked his life to help U.S. troops, is being detained by ICE in Massachusetts.

He's been living in the U.S. LEGALLY for fear of retribution if he returns to Afghanistan.

Targeting Zia and other Afghan allies is dangerous and wrong.
Ex-U.S. military translator from Afghanistan arrested by ICE in CT. Attorney calls it ‘nonsensical.’
The 35-year-old husband and father of five was taken into custody by ICE agents outside a routine green card appointment in East Hartford.

Everyone I saw detained at 26 Fed last week, like the young man below, followed the rules by attending their court dates. Judges granted them hearings on their asylum applications, signaling they were safe for the time being, before masked and armed agents ambushed them.
