Basketteuse sénégalaise détenue aux États-Unis : « Elle a besoin d’une opération », alerte son avocate
Senegalese basketball player Aminata Seck, 26, has been detained in the United States since her arrest on August 7 by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents. Walfadjri reports that she was arrested at security at Muhammad Ali International Airport in Louisville while traveling with her team to New York. According to her lawyer, Sadiqa Reynolds, the athlete missed the deadline for her student visa application "because she was undergoing back surgery."
Since her arrest, Aminata Seck has reportedly been transferred to four different detention centers located in Clay, Chicago, Clark, and Grayson counties. Suffering from a torn anterior cruciate ligament, she is said to be experiencing excruciating pain. According to her lawyer, the player is not receiving regular medical care and has only been given ibuprofen.
The situation took a particularly shocking turn during a medical emergency that required her transfer to the hospital. Ms. Reynolds, quoted by the Front de Terre newspaper, claims she learned from an ICE agent that the athlete had been "shackled at the waist, hands, and feet" during her transfer. Maintaining that her client "is not a criminal," she is demanding that she receive the necessary medical care and be "released to fully recover."
For its part, Kentucky State University declined to comment on the situation, citing "respect for privacy".

Qu'Allah t'assiste dans cette situation difficile!
Depuis le 07 août, c'est déjà long pour un flagrant délit.
Que fait le Président de la République pour intervenir et la faire revenir au Sénégal.
Un pays dirigé par des menteurs , insulteurs et violeurs ça compte pas chez les hommes normaux.
