A man has been arrested by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents for being an alleged agent of Cuba’s Ministry of the Interior and being in the U.S. illegally.
According to a news release from ICE, Daniel Morejon Garcia, a 57-year-old Cuban national, was arrested at his home in Miami and taken into custody by ICE, the FBI and U.S. Customs and Border Protection.
Officials said the investigation centered on fraudulent claims he allegedly made when entering the country.
During the investigation, officials said law enforcement agents obtained official Cuban government documents and “credible source information” indicating that Morejon Garcia had failed to disclose his affiliations.
