His family was left scrambling, contacting immigration offices, hospitals and even a morgue for more information on Leon’s whereabouts.</p><p>"Then, on July 9, Leon’s wife received a call that seemed to confirm the family’s worst fears; the caller claimed the 82-year-old had died.</p><p>"Thankfully, this week, his family members learned that Leon had been moved from a <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/DetentionFacility" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DetentionFacility</span></a> in Minnesota to <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Guatemala" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Guatemala</span></a>. He’s now in a hospital in Guatemala City, the outlet reported. The Independent has reached out to ICE for more information.</p><p>It’s not immediately clear why he was sent to Guatemala.

She’s planning to fly to Guatemala to see her grandfather, who suffers from diabetes, high blood pressure and other conditions."</p><p><a href="https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/ice-deported-grandpa-green-card-b2792290.html?utm_source=firefox-newtab-en-us" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">independent.co.uk/news/world/a</span><span class="invisible">mericas/us-politics/ice-deported-grandpa-green-card-b2792290.html?utm_source=firefox-newtab-en-us</span></a></p><p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ICEKidnapping" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ICEKidnapping</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Disappeared" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Disappeared</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ICEGestapo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ICEGestapo</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/TrumpSucks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TrumpSucks</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ResistICE" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ResistICE</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/DHS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DHS</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Kidnapping" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Kidnapping</span></a></p>
