Iranian Mother Released from ICE Detention After Political Intervention

Following a high-profile intervention by a Republican House Majority Leader, an Iranian mother who had been living in the U.S. for 47 years has been released from ICE detention. The 64-year-old woman, Mandonna Kashanian, was detained by immigration officials in front of her Lakeview home, sparking community outrage and highlighting fears about immigration enforcement practices. The incident has raised concerns about the treatment of immigrants and the potential for widespread detentions in the current political climate. Kashanian, who was arrested just after U.S. military actions in Iran, has now returned to her family in New Orleans.
