**Amritsar, India** – A second deportation flight from the United States landed in Amritsar on Friday, carrying a significant number of Indian nationals who were deported under controversial circumstances. Many of the deportees have raised serious concerns about their treatment during the flight, alleging they were shackled and subjected to inhumane conditions.
According to reports, the deportees, primarily from Punjab, were part of a larger group that the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) had scheduled for repatriation. The flight, which arrived late Friday night, was part of ongoing efforts by the US government to expedite the deportation of individuals who have overstayed their visas or violated immigration laws.
Several deportees have voiced their grievances, claiming they were restrained with handcuffs and leg irons during the journey. “It was a humiliating experience,” said one deportee who wished to remain anonymous. “We were treated like criminals despite having committed no crime.”
The Indian Ministry of External Affairs has acknowledged the arrival of the deportees and stated that they are in contact with US authorities to address the concerns raised. Meanwhile, a third deportation flight is scheduled to arrive in Amritsar on Sunday night.
This incident has sparked a debate on the treatment of deportees and the conditions under which they are transported, with human rights organizations calling for an urgent review of the procedures followed by ICE.
