墨西哥官员周四表示，墨西哥将针对特朗普政府时期，17名死于美国移民海关执法局（ICE）羁押或移民执法行动中的墨西哥公民提起刑事指控。
墨西哥外交部长罗伯托·贝拉斯科周四上午宣布的这一消息进一步加剧了美墨紧张关系，墨西哥政府此前曾严厉批评特朗普政府加大遣返力度期间对本国公民的待遇。
此项不具备法律效力的请求将提交给各州检察官办公室和美国司法部，要求他们对这些死亡事件的责任人考虑提起刑事诉讼。
贝拉斯科表示，与此同时墨方还将对运营拘留中心的公司提起民事诉讼，以期终结这些设施内侵犯人权的行为。
墨西哥总统克劳迪娅·希恩鲍姆周四表示，在一名移民海关执法局特工本周在休斯顿枪击墨西哥公民洛伦佐·萨尔加多·阿劳霍后，墨西哥决定“跳出外交渠道”，升级投诉力度。
“我们将竭尽所能，因为我们不能对墨西哥公民的死亡保持沉默”，这些人“唯一的罪行就是在美国诚实工作”，希恩鲍姆说道。
萨尔加多·阿劳霍已在美国生活数十年。当时他正载着施工队前往一处住宅建筑工地，途中遭到枪击。他的家人要求对事件经过展开彻底调查。

美国国土安全部周四证实，移民海关执法局特工当时正在追捕另一名嫌疑人，随后拦截了萨尔加多·阿劳霍的车辆。
国土安全部表示：“在收到执法伙伴提供的可靠线索后，我们的特工对目标地址进行了监视。事件发生前几周，他们注意到该地址停有两辆白色面包车。7月7日，特工们即将抵达目标地址时，发现了一辆白色面包车，车上有一名与目标嫌疑人相似的男子。随后特工们示意车辆停下。”
国土安全部周二最初称，移民海关执法局特工当时的目标是萨尔加多·阿劳霍，因为他非法滞留美国。该部门声称，萨尔加多·阿劳霍在无视“多次口头命令”并试图驾车冲撞一名特工后，特工开枪自卫。休斯顿消防部门表示，萨尔加多·阿劳霍腹部中弹，随后他的车辆撞上了一辆移民海关执法局的车辆。

据国土安全部消息，他被送往医院后最终因伤势过重身亡。
根据墨西哥政府的统计，已有14名墨西哥公民在移民海关执法局羁押期间死亡，另有3人在移民执法行动中身亡。哥伦比亚广播公司对移民海关执法局记录的分析显示，2025年共有31名移民海关执法局羁押人员死亡，达到二十年来的峰值。
迄今为止，墨西哥政府一直为受害者家属提供支持，向美国华盛顿递交外交照会要求展开调查，并将该问题提交至美洲国家组织人权委员会。希恩鲍姆今年早些时候下令各领事馆定期探访移民海关执法局羁押人员，墨西哥政府还向联合国人权高级专员办事处提交了投诉。
墨西哥此次提出的新诉求，进一步加剧了与特朗普政府本已紧张的双边关系。此前特朗普威胁将对墨西哥贩毒集团采取军事行动，希恩鲍姆政府比前任更严厉地打击有组织犯罪。同时，希恩鲍姆一直在努力与美国政府保持友好关系，推动两国就这项已生效数十年的自由贸易协定重新进行谈判。与此同时，她在移民执法和美国羁押中的墨西哥公民权益问题上采取了强硬立场。
Mexico seeks prosecutions over deaths of 17 Mexicans in U.S. after shooting of Houston man by ICE agents

Mexico will request criminal charges over 17 Mexicans who died in ICE custody or during immigration enforcement operations by the Trump administration, officials said Thursday.
Mexican Foreign Minister Roberto Velasco’s announcement Thursday morning further escalated tensions with the United States, as Mexico’s government has sharply criticized the treatment of its citizens under President Trump’s push to increase deportations.
The request, which carries no legal weight, will be submitted to state prosecutors’ offices and the U.S. Department of Justice, asking them to consider criminal charges against those responsible for the deaths.
It will be accompanied by civil lawsuits against the companies that operate the detention centers in an effort to put an end to human rights violations in those facilities, Velasco said.
President Claudia Sheinbaum said Thursday that Mexico decided to “move beyond diplomatic channels” and escalate its complaints after an ICE agent killed Mexican citizen Lorenzo Salgado Araujo in Houston this week.
“We are going to do everything in our power, because we cannot stand silent” in the face of the deaths of Mexicans “whose only crime is working honestly in the United States,” Sheinbaum said.
Salgado Araujo had been living in the country for decades. He was transporting a work crew to a housing construction site when he was shot. His family demanded a thorough investigation into what happened.

The Department of Homeland Security confirmed on Thursday that the ICE officers were looking for a different person when they stopped his vehicle.
“After receiving a credible tip from our law enforcement partners, our officers conducted surveillance on a target’s address. Weeks prior to the incident, they noted two white vans at the property,” DHS said. “On July 7, officers were almost at the target’s address when they observed a white van with an individual who resembled the target. Officers then initiated the vehicle stop.”
DHS initially said Tuesday that ICE officers were targeting Salgado Araujo because he was living in the country without legal permission. The department alleged he was shot after he ignored “multiple verbal commands” and attempted to ram an officer who fired his weapon in self-defense. Houston firefighters said Salgado Araujo was struck in the abdomen, and then his car hit an ICE vehicle.

He was taken to the hospital but died of his injuries, according to DHS.
According to the Mexican government, 14 Mexicans have died while in ICE custody and 3 during ICE operations. In 2025, 31 ICE detainees died, a two-decade high, according to a CBS News analysis of ICE records.
Until now, the Mexican government had supported the victims’ families, sent diplomatic notes to Washington demanding investigations, and raised the issue with the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights. Sheinbaum earlier this year ordered consulates to regularly check in with ICE detainees, and her government even lodged a complaint with the U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights.
Mexico’s latest request adds to an already strained relationship with the Trump administration. Sheinbaum has cracked down more fiercely than her predecessors on organized crime in the wake of mounting threats by Trump to take military action against cartels. She has also sought to keep an amicable relationship with her U.S. counterpart as the countries renegotiate the decades-old free trade agreement. At the same time, she’s taken a strong stance on immigration enforcement and the rights of Mexican citizens in U.S. custody.
