A Beaverton family is grieving the loss of a 53-year-old father who died of pneumonia in Mexico after being detained and deported by US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), according to local media reports and family statements.
Eric Martin San Juan said his father, Paulino Martin San Pedro, was detained in Oregon in November and deported within days to Mexico, a country he had not lived in for more than 30 years. Shortly after arriving, San Pedro was hospitalised and later died on February 16 due to pneumonia.
