On April 16, 2026, Alexandre Ramagem was released from the United States (U.S.) Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) custody after a two-day detention. The former lawmaker and intelligence chief thanked the U.S. government for his release. Paulo Figuerido, a U.S.-based associate of the former lawmaker, said that Ramagem had been stopped in Orlando for a minor traffic violation and was then referred to immigration authorities.
