“A federal judge ordered the Trump administration Tuesday to improve the conditions for ICE [abductees] in Manhattan after a lawsuit filed by a Peruvian immigrant complained of cramped and unsanitary holding cells. U.S. District Judge Lewis Kaplan ordered officials by Aug. 26 to provide more spacious accommodations that are equipped with a bedding mat for each [abductee] held overnight, have hygiene supplies and are cleaned ‘thoroughly’ at least three times a day. Kaplan, a Clinton appointee, also ordered officials to allow [abductees] private phone calls with their lawyers within 24 hours of being [kidnapped] and to give them a printed notice of their rights within one hour of being placed in a holding room. The notice, Kaplan ordered, should inform them that, upon request, they will be given bottled water and one additional meal per day beyond the two that are automatically provided to them.” (08/12/25)
