Supreme Court reviews detaining immigrants without bail in terrorism era
The Supreme Court will decide if immigrant criminals can be kept jailed without bail to prevent flight before deportation. The case touches on rights of foreigners held in terrorism investigations and involves government claims of broad detention power, with lower courts having challenged blanket detentions. The court also blocked secret detention hearings for post Sept. 11 arrests, signaling future involvement in national security and immigrant rights cases. Hyung Joon Kim, a Korean-born Californian, was jailed by INS after a 1999 release from prison pending a hearing.
