A Nigerian national, Raphael Oludemilade Adebowale, has been arrested by the United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) during an enforcement operation targeting undocumented migrants. The US Department of Homeland Security identified Adebowale as one of three foreign nationals arrested during the operation.

Adebowale was arrested in Bridgewater, Massachusetts, and had previously been convicted of larceny and money laundering, according to the US Department of Homeland Security. The department did not provide further details about the convictions, including the sentences imposed or the circumstances surrounding his immigration status.

The other two people arrested were identified as Jawwad Ali Ahmed, a Pakistani national previously convicted of offences involving a child under 14 in California, and Alexandre Esdras Pandolfi-Soares, a Brazilian national previously convicted of forcible sexual abuse in Utah. The three arrests were announced by the US Department of Homeland Security following the enforcement operation.

Authorities did not disclose whether Adebowale faces any new criminal charges arising from his arrest or provide details of any ongoing court proceedings. His case comes amid continued US immigration enforcement operations targeting foreign nationals with criminal convictions and unresolved immigration issues.
