A judge in Honduras has authorized the extradition of former president Juan Orlando Hernandez to the United States on drug-trafficking and firearms charges. U.S. authorities charged that Hernandez, 53, participated in a drug-trafficking scheme between 2004 and 2022. The right-wing former leader is also accused of accepting millions of dollars in bribes to protect drug traffickers from investigation and prosecution, and carrying, using, or aiding and abetting the use of weapons. He was replaced as president in January by leftist Xiomara Castro after eight years in office, and has denied any wrongdoing. \u201cWe are going to file an appeal to try to avoid extradition,\u201d Felix Avila, a defense attorney for Hernandez, told journalists outside the courtICE Detainees Haven\u2019t Seen Loved Ones in 2 Years<\/p>\n

Health protocols put in place on March 13, 2020 are still preventing Immigration and Customs Enforcement detainees from seeing their loved ones in person, despite the fact that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and states have loosened their pandemic-related protocols. Immigrants and their advocates say the lack of in-person visitations is cruel and ICE should restore its pre-pandemic policy. Freedom for Immigrants, a nonprofit that monitors abuses faced by ICE detainees, along with more than 20 immigrant advocacy organizations launched a campaign this week to demand that ICE restore visitation. TIMEFamilies of Gambians Who Died in the Bronx Fire Denied Travel Visas With No Explanation<\/p>\n

The U.S. consulate in The Gambia denied visas to families of those who died in the Bronx Fire earlier in the year. The individuals attempted to travel to the U.S. in order to bury their loved ones or take care of the survivors but their visa applications were rejected with no real explanation as to why. One family, in particular, the Jawara family, saw a six-person family stripped down to four after both parents died in the building fire. Their grandmother\u2019s visa has been denied, and, as a result, the children are left to fend for themselves as their new caregiver tries desperately to reach them. \u201cThey are grieving and just went through a very tragic loss,\u201d said Salim Drammeh, president of the Gambian Youth Organization (GYO) in New York.
