华盛顿，3月19日（路透社） – 一名为西班牙语新闻媒体工作的哥伦比亚记者于3月初在纳什维尔被美国移民和海关执法局（ICE）逮捕，其法律团队表示，她已于周四获释。
纳什维尔新闻（Nashville Noticias）的埃斯特法尼亚·玛丽亚·罗德里格斯·弗洛雷斯（Estefany Maria Rodriguez Florez）在田纳西州首府被捕，她的拘留迅速遭到人权组织、移民权益倡导组织和新闻自由团体的谴责。

罗德里格斯·弗洛雷斯在美国生活了五年，“经常报道批评移民和海关执法局的新闻”，她的律师表示。移民和海关执法局指控她违反了签证条件。
代表该记者在法庭上进行人身保护令诉讼的田纳西州移民和难民权利联盟律师迈克·霍利（Mike Holley）称，这名记者在移民和海关执法局拘留16天后，以1万美元保释金获释。
霍利在声明中表示，记者的律师正在寻求一项命令，禁止移民和海关执法局“未来以类似方式虐待她”。
移民和海关执法局一直是唐纳德·特朗普总统移民打击行动的核心，权益倡导者称这违反了言论自由和正当程序，并造成了不安全的环境。特朗普称其政策旨在遏制非法移民并提高国内安全。

移民和海关执法局表示，罗德里格斯·弗洛雷斯将获得正当法律程序。
她的律师本月早些时候表示，这名记者原定于3月中旬与移民和海关执法局的执法与遣返行动部门会面。移民和海关执法局此前两次重新安排了与她的会面，一次是由于冬季风暴，另一次是因为一名特工在系统中找不到她的预约。
罗德里格斯·弗洛雷斯持旅游签证来到美国，申请了政治庇护，后来嫁给了一名美国公民，并持有有效的工作许可证，她的律师称。他们补充说，她和她的丈夫已申请将她的身份调整为合法永久居民。
特朗普政府指控她的旅游签证无权在2021年之后留在美国。对她的案件将继续审理。

WASHINGTON, March 19 (Reuters) – A Colombian reporter working for a Spanish-language news outlet who was arrested by the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement in Nashville in early March was released from custody on Thursday, her legal team said.

Rodriguez Florez has lived in the U.S. for five years and “frequently reports on stories critical of ICE,” her lawyers say. ICE accused her of violating her visa conditions.
After spending 16 days in ICE detention, the reporter was released on a $10,000 bond, said Mike Holley, a Tennessee Immigrant and Refugee Rights Coalition attorney representing the journalist’s habeas case in court.
Holley said in the statement that the reporter’s attorneys were seeking an order barring ICE from “mistreating her in a similar way in the future.”
ICE has been at the heart of President Donald Trump’s immigration crackdown, which rights advocates say violates free speech and due process and has created an unsafe environment. Trump says his policies aim to curb illegal immigration and improve domestic security.

ICE has said Rodriguez Florez will receive due process.
The reporter had a meeting scheduled for mid-March with ICE’s Enforcement and Removal Operations, her lawyers said earlier this month when she was detained. ICE previously twice rescheduled a meeting with her, once due to a winter storm and again when an agent could not find her appointment in the system.
Rodriguez Florez arrived in the U.S. on a tourist visa, filed for political asylum, later married a U.S. citizen and has a valid work permit, her lawyers say. They add that she and her husband have filed for permission to adjust her status to lawful permanent resident.
Trump’s administration alleges she was not authorized to stay in the U.S. beyond 2021 on her tourist visa. The case against her will continue.
