Federal Judge Orders Release of Elderly Ugandan Pastor from ICE Detention

A federal judge has ordered the release of 78-year-old Ugandan pastor Edward Nalwamba after 13 months in ICE detention. The court found the government failed to prove his deportation was reasonably foreseeable, citing Supreme Court precedent on indefinite detention of noncitizens. This decision underscores limits on immigration authorities' power to hold individuals without a clear path to removal.
