French IT giant Capgemini announced on Sunday that it was putting up for sale its subsidiary working with the US immigration police (ICE), at the heart of international controversy over the violent methods used by these federal agents.
The company has been in the spotlight for several days because of a contract, revealed by the NGO Observatoire des Multinationales, that its US subsidiary, Capgemini Government Solutions, signed with ICE to identify foreign nationals on US soil and track their movements.
