Unseen Video of Trump’s Brutal Deportation of Indians Out| 104 Indians Shackled, Hauled to India [Video]

Unseen Video of Trump’s Brutal Deportation of Indians Out| 104 Indians Shackled, Hauled to India

A shocking video released by the US Border Patrol (USBP) has sparked outrage across India. The footage shows 104 Indian deportees being shackled in handcuffs and leg restraints as they are forcibly marched onto a military transport plane, underscoring the Trump administration's harsh stance on illegal immigration. The video, posted by USBP Chief Michael W. Banks, carries a stern warning: "If you cross illegally, you will be removed." The dehumanizing process, which includes the use of military aircraft for deportations, has drawn severe criticism from Indian opposition MPs, human rights activists, and citizens alike. As the plane landed in Amritsar, deportees like Jaspal Singh and Harwinder Singh recounted harrowing tales of their perilous journey through illegal routes, further intensifying the outcry. This video serves as a chilling reminder of the brutal tactics employed in the name of immigration control. #TrumpDeportation #BrutalDeportation #IllegalImmigration #ShackledDeportees #USBorderPatrol #IndiaOutrage #DeportationVideo #HumanRightsViolation #TrumpImmigrationPolicy #TrumpAdministration #IllegalImmigrants #IndiaUSRelations #DeportationFlight #ImmigrationCrisis #TrumpHardline Also Read Trump’s Gaza Takeover Plan: A Recipe For Prosperity Or Disaster? :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-s-gaza-takeover-plan-a-recipe-for-prosperity-or-disaster-4063545.html?ref=DMDesc Gold In Crisis: How Trump's Tariff Policies Are Shaping The Global Economy :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/gold-in-crisis-how-trump-s-tariff-policies-are-shaping-the-global-economy-4063531.html?ref=DMDesc Massive Protests Break Out In Several US States Against Trump, Musk, DOGE, Project 2025: 'Deport Elon' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/massive-protests-break-out-in-several-us-states-against-trump-musk-doge-project-2025-deport-elo-4063527.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~ED.102~PR.152~
