Grijalva Demands Immediate Release of Ahmed Soliman Following Reports of Beating, Imprisonment | 2026-09-21 | 2026 | 2026-09 | Democrat | House | AZ | Adelita S. Grijalva | G000606 | grijalva.house.gov | grijalva | https://grijalva.house.gov/media | scraper | Washington, D.C. — Congresswoman Adelita S. Grijalva released the below statement following new reports (here, here, and here) that Ahmed Soliman was “hooded, bound, and beaten with guns and shoved down a flight of stairs,” and is at risk of torture. Ahmed was recently arrested by local authorities after speaking out about the conditions he and other detainees who were deported from the U.S. face at a decommissioned hotel in Equatorial Guinea. “I am horrified by disturbing new reports of Ahmed being hooded, bound, and beaten. I fear his life is in immediate danger. The Trump Administration deported Ahmed into harm’s way and bears full responsibility for his cruel treatment — and for what happens to him next. The Administration must act immediately to secure Ahmed’s release before it is too late, along with the release of others being involuntarily held in Equatorial Guinea. Moreover, DHS must immediately cease this shameful and illegal practice of third-party country deportations.” ### | 1 | 2026-09-22T09:42:49Z | 2026-09-22T09:44:35Z |
