The United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) said it has deported an Ethiopian human rights violator and genocide influencer, Solomon Bogale.

ICE made this known in a Facebook post last Thursday.

It said Bogale was deported on March 5 by its office in Phoenix, Arizona.

According to the post, ICE officers discovered Bogale’s social media accounts where he openly identified himself as a member of Fano, a Tier III terrorist group.

The agency said its Human Rights Violators and War Crimes Center had deported 1,178 known or suspected human rights violators and war criminals since 2003.

The post reads, “Criminal illegal alien Solomon Bogale was denied immigration benefits and ultimately deported to Ethiopia March 5 by our Phoenix officers after ICE discovered numerous social media accounts where he openly identified himself as a member of Fano, a Tier III terrorist group.

“Bogale’s posts called for persecution and violence against Tigrayans by ‘cleansing’ them from Ethiopia.

“Since 2003, ICE’s HSI-led Human Rights Violators and War Crimes Center has deported 1,178 known or suspected human rights violators and war criminals.”
