(Daily Caller) Top Republicans on the House Homeland Security Committee sent a letter to Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas and FBI Director Christopher Wray on Wednesday demanding information regarding an ISIS-tied smuggler that crossed the southern border.
The members raised concerns regarding reports that federal authorities were trying to track down more than a dozen Uzbeki migrants smuggled through the U.S.-Mexico border by an ISIS-tied smuggler, according to the letter obtained first by the Daily Caller News Foundation. Authorities screened and released the group of migrants into the country earlier this year after crossing the southern border and claiming asylum; the Turkish government later arrested the smuggler.
