ICE Names 89 Indians In Its ‘Worst Of The Worst’ Criminal List
India-West News Desk
WASHINGTON, DC-At least 89 Indian nationals have been identified in a “worst of the worst” criminal database released by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS), which lists individuals arrested by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Customs and Border Protection (CBP) as the federal government intensifies deportation actions targeting undocumented immigrants with criminal convictions.
According to the DHS, the Indian nationals named in the database have been convicted of a wide range of serious offences, including sexual assault, drug trafficking, domestic violence, robbery, fraud and money laundering: https://www.dhs.gov/wow
The department said the database reflects enforcement actions carried out under Secretary Noem’s leadership and aligns with President Donald Trump’s stated priority of removing criminal undocumented immigrants from the United States. DHS recently announced that an additional 5,000 individuals had been added to the public portal, wow.dhs.gov, bringing the total number of profiles to 25,000. The department described the database as a “snapshot” of arrests made by ICE and CBP.
“We are not stopping until every single one of these people are gone,” the DHS said in an official statement, adding that it is publicly identifying those arrested so Americans can see the work being carried out by federal officers. “Americans should not be victimized by people who aren’t even legally allowed to inhabit our nation,” the department said.
The release comes amid heightened scrutiny of immigration enforcement operations. ICE and border agents have faced criticism following a recent crackdown in Minneapolis that coincided with the deaths of two U.S. citizens, Renee Good and Alex Pretti. Despite the backlash, DHS said the enforcement actions remain focused on individuals it describes as violent or repeat offenders who are in the country illegally.
