A person with historic connections to a Colombian group, identified in the past as a terrorist entity, was detained by Border Patrol officers on Tuesday as he unlawfully traversed the southern-border region, as per a confidential Customs and Border Protection (CBP) memo that landed in the hands of the Daily Caller News Foundation.

The scenario unfolded on February 6, as agents interacted with Oscar De Leon-Ramirez, who was discovered within a compilation of eight individuals from Colombia and El Salvador in the region of Texas' El Paso sector. Subsequently, the National Targeting Center alerted agents about De Leon-Ramirez's likely history of involvement in 'terrorist activities', revealed by the memo.
