UN seeks independent investigation into ICE detention deaths
The UN is demanding independent probes into dozens of deaths in US immigration detention since last year, citing a surge in fatalities under President Trump's crackdown. UN rights chief Volker Turk called for "prompt action to prevent further loss of life," highlighting a lack of transparency and urging accountability for violations. He stressed that immigration detention should be a last resort, especially for children.
