A US soldier's wife who was detained by immigration agents at the military base where he is stationed - just days after their wedding - has been released. Annie Ramos, 22, an undocumented immigrant who came to the US as a toddler, was arrested on 2 April and spent five days at a detention centre alongside hundreds facing deportation under the Trump administration's immigration crackdown. Immigration officials described Ramos as 'an illegal alien from Honduras' who was arrested after attempting to enter a military base. Staff Sergeant Matthew Blank expressed relief at his wife's release, stating, 'These have been the worst days of my life.' After she was detained, he said, 'I can't wait to carry my wife into our home and start our lives together.' Meanwhile, Ramos, a biochemistry student, aims to continue her education and secure her immigration status. The Department of Homeland Security has stated that Ramos has 'no legal status' in the country, and legal experts have noted the administration's shift away from previously lenient immigration policies for military families.
