The Guardian: Ice secretly deported Pennsylvania grandfather, 82, after he lost green card

"...Family of Luis Leon say they were initially told by someone he had died, but they found him alive in Guatemala hospital..."

"...long-time Allentown resident Luis Leon – who was granted political asylum in the US in 1987 after being tortured under the regime of the Chilean dictator Augusto Pinochet – lost his wallet containing the physical card that confirmed his legal residency. So he and wife booked an appointment to get it replaced.

When he arrived at the office on 20 June, however, he was handcuffed by two Immigration and Customs Enforcement (Ice) officers, who led him away from his wife without explanation, she said..."
