Dozen are arrested on immigration warrants
By Robert Mills,  08/06/2008 

LOWELL -- A dozen people across Lowell were 
arrested on immigration-related federal warrants 
during a 26-hour span ending last night. 
     The spate of arrests began Monday at about 
6:40 p.m., and concluded with an arrest Tuesday 
night at about 8 p.m., according to police 
arrest logs... 
     About 150 people gathered in the rain, 
carrying signs demanding justice, due process 
and the return of their loved ones... 
     Those arrested will eventually face a judge 
in the U.S. Justice Department's Immigration 
Court who will decide whether they will be 
deported, she said. Protesters said they felt 
victimized by the arrests and called for grass-
roots political action.
