Costa Rica ombudsman probes state aid for citizens detained by ICE after second death

Costa Rica's ombudsman has requested information from the Foreign Ministry on assistance provided to Costa Ricans detained by U.S. immigration authorities, following the second death of a Costa Rican in ICE custody. The request signals growing domestic political pressure on the government to address consular support gaps. The incident is part of a broader pattern of migrant deaths in U.S. detention, but the specific circumstances remain unclear.
