Pablo Villavicencio should be immediately released from custody in New Jersey, insisted by Justice Paul Crotte. He said that the release of Vilyavicencio is necessary, because his expulsion from the United States can no longer be reasonable.

A native of Ecuador may remain in the country while he is trying to become a legal citizen. He applied for a stay in the United States after he married a US citizen, from whom he has two daughters.

Illegal immigrant Pablo Villavicencio was arrested 1 June during the delivery of pizza at the military base of Fort Hamilton in Brooklyn.

To enter the base, the pizza delivery man was asked to submit an ID, which he did not have, so Vilyavicencio agreed to check his data.

Finding out that the man is in the US illegally, the military detained him, and then handed him over to the immigration authorities.

According to his wife Sandra Chika, the man has been living in the USA for almost 10 for years and has applied for a green card.

Fort Hamilton spokeswoman Kathy Santo Pietro said that Villichencio arrived at the base without an ID that the US Department of Defense recognized. After he signed a permit to verify his data, the military discovered that an active arrest warrant from the Immigration and Customs Control (ICE) was in effect against this person, so it was decided to detain him.

The ICE explained that in the 2010 year, a decision was taken on a man of voluntary deportation, which he did not comply with, and now he is considered a fugitive from immigration authorities, so an arrest warrant was issued in his name.

Governor Andrew Cuomo in a letter asked The Department of Homeland Security will release Villavicinsio "from detention on immigration and customs services" (ICE). "

“Accelerated deportation of Villavicencio does not pursue any legitimate goals of public safety, and the circumstances leading to his arrest and detention raise serious legal and political issues that require proper investigation and adjudication,” said Cuomo. The governor added that Villavicencio is a taxpayer who has been living in New York for more than 10 years.

The Villavicencio case caught the attention of New York activists, including the Immigration Coalition in New York and Make the Road New York, a political group advocating immigration issues.
