- Officials cite a prior murder admission and theft conviction.
- He is in ICE custody as removal proceedings continue.

## Summary

ICE says it arrested Sobirjon Sobirov Khusen Ugli, a 35-year-old Uzbek man, near his Brooklyn home on 14 October over his unlawful entry into the United States. The case matters because officials say he had previously admitted to killing his girlfriend in Thailand and had a felony theft conviction in Uzbekistan.

ICE says Sobirov crossed the US border near Lukeville, Arizona, in April 2023 with a group of 110 people and was released pending immigration proceedings; officials say he reported once, in May 2024. In New York, he was arrested in 2024 for harassing communication and received a restraining order, according to ICE. It is unclear whether he was convicted or served time for the Thailand killing; he is now in ICE custody as removal proceedings continue.
