Kentucky State University basketball player Aminata Seck was released from immigration detention Wednesday after posting a $2,500 bond, according to information provided by her attorney and reported Oct. 7. Seck, who is from Senegal, was detained by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement on Aug. 7 at Louisville Muhammad Ali International Airport, shortly after passing through the Transportation Security Administration checkpoint. She was preparing to travel to New York for a basketball trip. A judge granted Seck bond Tuesday. Her attorney said her student visa had expired, possibly around the time she underwent surgery. The reported information did not specify when the visa expired or what steps may follow in her immigration case. Seck was held at the Grayson County Detention Center before her release. Her case highlights the effect immigration enforcement can have on students and athletes whose ability to remain in the United States depends on maintaining valid immigration status.
