• Kaur arrived in New Delhi on September 23 and, speaking from Mohali, described being handcuffed, sleeping on a floor in a Georgia holding area for roughly 60–70 hours, and struggling without reliable access to medication.
• She was detained on September 8 during a scheduled check-in at ICE’s San Francisco office and moved through Yuba County and the Mesa Verde facility in Bakersfield to Los Angeles before an ICE‑chartered route via Georgia and Armenia to Delhi.
• Her attorney says ICE refused requests to let her meet family or depart on a commercial flight and did not provide advance notice of the final transfers.
• ICE says she exhausted appeals up to the Ninth Circuit and that the agency executed a judge’s final removal order after years of due process.
• The detention and removal drew protests in California and appeals from local officials who urged ICE to halt the deportation and to ensure humane treatment.
