The mayor of Newark (New Jersey), Ras Barack (Democrat), was arrested this Friday, protested against the opening of the center of imprisonment for migrants. The Federal State Prosecutor Alina Hubba explained to X that the Baraka was arrested for “property, as well as“ ignoring warnings about national security officers to leave Delaney Hall, a detention center, managed by a private company of GEO Group prisons. ”
Hubba, in accordance with the performance of the Prosecutor General Pam Bondi and the government of Donald Trump, who had already arrested the judge for the “obstacle” of the migrant’s arrest, said: “This will not endure in this state. He was arrested. No one is higher than the law. ”
The mayor -democrat protested for a week against the opening of the center, guaranteeing that its operators did not receive appropriate permits. Barack joined the visit, making three members of the New Jersey Congress as part of a demonstration against the center of the hall. Legislators, all the democrats, were Robert Menendes, Lamonika Makiver and Bonnie Watson Coleman.
The representative of the National Security Department accused the protesters of breaking through to the center when a bus with detained people arrived. “The forced entry of these members of the Congress in the center of detention goes beyond the scope of unusual political maneuvering and is secured by our agents and risk detained,” the representative said in a statement mentioned by Reuters.
At the improvised press conference and broadcasting on the air on social networks, Coleman condemned that what happened this Friday was “abuse of power.” “They know who we are … we were subjected to physical treatment and arrested the mayor,” said the congressman, who added: “The conditions of the center are bad … The ice will get out of control … He thinks that he can intimidate us all.” For his part, the Macaver said that the barracks “did nothing wrong” and that he had already left objects during his arrest.
Democratic congressmen planned a visit from the inevitable discovery of the center. The double -sided building is located next to the district prison and previously worked as a rehabilitation center. But in February, the Customs Immigration and Control Service announced that she had reached an agreement of $ 1,000 million and 15 years old with the GEO Group on the creation of a center of detention there. It was then that Barack sued a private company.
In addition to being the mayor of Newark, Barack postulated as a candidate from the Governor of the state of New Jersey.
