达拉斯—一名阿富汗移民在得克萨斯州被移民和海关执法局（ICE）拘留一天后死亡，其家人表示至今仍未得到关于其死因的任何解释。
41岁的穆罕默德·纳齐尔·帕克提亚瓦尔（Mohammad Nazeer Paktiawal）于3月13日准备送孩子上学时被ICE拘留，次日在达拉斯一家医院死亡。
“我只想为我父亲讨个说法，”12岁的伊姆雷因·帕克提亚瓦尔（Imrain Paktiawal）在得克萨斯州理查森市接受哥伦比亚广播公司新闻采访时说，”我想知道他为什么会死。他一直很健康。”
作为六个孩子的父亲，他是今年迄今为止第12个在ICE拘留期间死亡的人。根据哥伦比亚广播公司新闻对该机构报告和通知的分析，去年有31名ICE被拘留者死亡，为20年来最高。
纳齐尔·帕克提亚瓦尔告诉哥伦比亚广播公司新闻，他于周二收到了弟弟的遗体。
“我接到了嫂子的电话，”纳齐尔回忆弟弟被ICE拘留当天的情况，”她说，’突然来了几个人，把你弟弟带走了。’”
纳齐尔说，家人没有得到任何关于帕克提亚瓦尔被拘留的原因的解释。
“什么都没有，他们就把他塞进车里然后开走了，”纳齐尔说，”他的孩子们在尖叫，哭喊着求助，问’你们是谁？为什么要抓我爸爸？’但没人回答这些孩子。”
ICE在给哥伦比亚广播公司新闻的声明中表示，帕克提亚瓦尔于2021年8月通过一项名为”假释”的移民政策被带到美国，该政策允许某些移民基于人道主义原因在美国临时生活和工作。拜登政府曾利用该假释政策，欢迎从阿富汗塔利班接管后撤离的数万名阿富汗人。ICE称，帕克提亚瓦尔的假释身份于2025年8月20日到期。
ICE还表示，帕克提亚瓦尔去年在达拉斯地区因当地欺诈和盗窃指控被逮捕两次。达拉斯县地方检察官证实了这两次逮捕，但表示在他死亡时，两起案件均未定罪。得克萨斯州加兰市警察局称，盗窃案的指控源于他被指从沃尔玛商店盗窃食品杂货及其他物品。
然而，纳齐尔表示，这些逮捕记录并未完整反映他弟弟的人生经历。他指出，帕克提亚瓦尔曾服役于阿富汗军队，据称在2021年撤离美国前，曾与美军并肩作战。
“我弟弟是战时英雄，是一名士兵，一名与美国军队并肩作战的战士，”纳齐尔说，”他是驻阿富汗最危险地区的特种部队成员。”
美国国土安全部（DHS）在一份声明中表示，”没有记录显示此人曾与美军并肩作战”。但纳齐尔向哥伦比亚广播公司新闻展示了他声称是帕克提亚瓦尔在阿富汗与美军并肩作战的证据的文件和徽章。
“这些就是我弟弟曾共事的人，在阿富汗的美国士兵，”纳齐尔说。
纳齐尔称，他的兄弟是合法进入美国的，并且”接受过面试、指纹采集和背景审查”。
“他没有越境，”纳齐尔说，”他完全通过合法程序，完成了所有流程，不仅仅是他一个人，他的整个家庭都是如此。”
帕克提亚瓦尔被拘留后的具体情况仍不清楚。根据ICE的声明，3月13日晚，帕克提亚瓦尔在”ICE达拉斯现场办公室处理等候室”时”开始抱怨呼吸急促和胸痛”，随后”立即被送往达拉斯帕克兰健康医院”。
ICE称，帕克提亚瓦尔在医院”接受观察”，次日早上”正在吃早餐时，医护人员发现他的舌头肿胀，随即展开医疗应对。经过多次抢救尝试后，他于上午9:10被宣告死亡。”
纳齐尔说，他在3月13日（被拘留当天）与弟弟通过电话交谈。
“我首先听到的是他说：’纳齐尔，我不知道我现在在哪里，我感觉不舒服，’”纳齐尔回忆通话内容，”这是我听到的第一句话，’我感觉不舒服。’我告诉他：’好的，让我和那位官员说几句话。’”
纳齐尔称，他的兄弟随后将电话交给了一名联邦移民官员。
“他把电话递给了我，我对（移民官员）说，我弟弟需要帮助，他感觉很不舒服，”纳齐尔回忆道，”他…身体疼痛。（官员）告诉我：’别担心…我们有护士，会照顾好他。’然后就挂断了电话。”
纳齐尔表示，家人仍然没有得到关于其兄弟死亡原因的任何解释。ICE称，死亡调查仍在进行中。
“没有人告诉我我弟弟到底发生了什么，”纳齐尔说，”他为什么会死？”
与此同时，伊姆雷因表示，父亲的缺席让他难以接受。
“他是个好爸爸…他是个英雄，永远是英雄。”

Dallas— The family of an Afghan immigrant who died one day after being taken into custody by Immigration and Customs Enforcement in Texas says it has received no answers as to what caused the man’s death.
Mohammad Nazeer Paktiawal, 41, was detained by ICE on March 13 while getting ready to take his children to school. He died the following day in a Dallas hospital.
“I just want answers for my dad,” 12-year-old Imrain Paktiawal, Paktiawal’s son, told CBS News in Richardson, Texas. “That’s it. I want to know why he died. He was healthy.”
The father of six is the 12th person to die in ICE custody so far this year. Thirty-one ICE detainees died last year, a two-decade high, according to a CBS News analysis of agency reports and notices.
Naseer Paktiawal told CBS News he received his brother’s body on Tuesday.
“I received a call from my sister-in-law,” Naseer said of the morning his brother was taken into ICE custody. “She say that, ‘Some people show up from nowhere, and they just took your brother.’”
Naseer said the family received no explanation as to why Paktiawal was detained.
“Nothing, they just put him in their car and drove away,” Naseer said. “His kids were screaming, asking for help, asking question, ‘Who are you guys? Why are you guys arresting my father, my dad?’ No one answered those children.”
In a statement provided to CBS News, ICE said Paktiawal was brought to the U.S. in August 2021 through an immigration policy known as parole, which allows certain immigrants to live and work in the U.S. temporarily on humanitarian grounds. The Biden administration used the parole policy to welcome tens of thousands of Afghans it evacuated from Afghanistan following the Taliban takeover. ICE said Paktiawal’s parole status expired on Aug. 20, 2025.
ICE also said Paktiawal had been arrested twice last year in the Dallas area on local fraud and theft charges. The Dallas County District Attorney confirmed the arrests but said he had not been convicted in either case as of the time of his death. The theft arrest stemmed from an allegation that he stole groceries and other items from a Walmart store, according to the Garland, Texas, police department.
Naseer, however, said the arrests don’t tell the full story of his brother’s life. He points to Paktiawal’s service, which he said included a decade in the Afghan military, fighting alongside American forces before being evacuated to the U.S. in 2021.
“My brother, he was a wartime hero and he was a soldier, a warrior alongside with U.S. Army,” Naseer said. “He was special forces in the most dangerous places in Afghanistan.”
In a statement, DHS said it “has no record of this individual serving alongside American forces.” But Naseer showed CBS News documents and a badge that he says are evidence that Paktiawal fought alongside U.S. soldiers in Afghanistan.
“These are the people that my brother was working (with), American soldiers in Afghanistan,” Naseer said.
Naseer said his brother came to the U.S. legally and was “interviewed, fingerprinted, screened.”
“He did not cross the border,” Naseer said. “Legally went through all the system, complete all the procedures, not just him … his entire family.”
It is still unclear exactly what happened after Paktiawal was detained. According to the statement from ICE, on the night of March 13, Paktiawal was “immediately” taken to Parkland Health hospital in Dallas after he “began complaining of shortness of breath and chest pains while in an ICE Dallas Field Office processing hold room.”
ICE said Paktiawal remained at the hospital “for observation,” and the following morning, he “was eating breakfast when medical staff noted that his tongue had become swollen, prompting a medical response. After multiple lifesaving efforts were attempted, he was declared deceased at 9:10 a.m.”
Naseer said he spoke to his brother by phone on March 13, the day he was detained.
“The first thing that I heard from him, he said, ‘Naseer, I don’t know where am I right now, and I’m not feeling well,’” Naseer said of their conversation. “That’s the first word that I heard from him, ‘I’m not feeling well.’ I told him, ‘OK, so let me talk to whoever that officer is.’”
Naseer said his brother then handed the phone to a federal immigration officer.
“And he hand over the phone, and I told him (the immigration officer) that my brother needs help, he’s not feeling good,” Naseer recounted. “He’s … feeling pain in his body. He (the officer) told me, ‘Don’t worry about it … we have nurse. We will take care of him.’ And he hang up the phone on me.”
Naseer says the family still has not received answers as to the cause of his brother’s death. ICE said the death remains under investigation.
“Nobody’s answering to me that what happened to my brother,” Naseer said. “Why is he dead?”
Meanwhile, Imrain says his father’s absence is hard to process.
“He was a good dad … He was a hero, and he will always be a hero.”
