A federal judge in Minnesota has ordered the head of ICE to appear in court over the handling of detained immigrants. The order comes amid protests in Minneapolis after two US citizens were killed during immigration operations. Chief Judge Patrick J Schiltz said ICE failed to follow court orders on immigration hearings. Acting ICE director Todd Lyons must explain why he should not be held in contempt. The crackdown began under President Donald Trump. Officials say the situation has sparked public anger and legal concern. (PC: Reuters)
