ICE arrests previously caught and released Senegalese illegal immigrant wanted for murder in Brazil

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents in Philadelphia arrested a Senegalese illegal immigrant who is wanted for murder in Brazil.

ICE officials stated that Gora Tourie Fall, a 34-year-old Senegalese citizen, was taken into custody on Dec. 10 during a specific enforcement operation conducted in Philadelphia.

Fall was caught and released by the Biden-Harris administration’s Border Patrol in Eagle Pass, Texas, in April 2021, officials stated. 

Officials said Fall was later issued a notice to appear before an immigration judge and then released on parole.

According to information shared with committee staff in June, Border Patrol has encountered migrants from 36 different countries on the terror watch list, including countries known for having a significant terror presence like Afghanistan, Iraq, Lebanon, Pakistan, Somalia, Syria, Tajikistan, and Yemen.

A report emphasized the growing concerns of national security experts and immigration authorities regarding the potential terrorism threats originating from the border. The report highlighted the importance of policymakers securing the border and preventing the entry of illegal immigrants. It criticized the Biden-Harris Administration for neglecting to confront the national security risks associated with its lenient immigration policies.

Another scathing report released by the committee in October added that more than 1.7 million migrants have been encountered at the U.S. border and have come from countries that officials believe pose a national security threat to the U.S.

The report says the number of “special interest aliens” (SIAs) came from a congressional staff briefing by Department of Homeland Security officials. SIAs are those who have come from countries identified by the U.S. government as having conditions that promote or protect terrorism or potentially pose some sort of national security threat to the U.S.
