U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement has released an Ecuadorian man whom officials flew to Texas after he was detained in Maine.

Edgar Vicente Bermeo Sicha was released from ICE custody on Saturday, one day after a federal judge in Maine ordered the agency to do so, according to a status update filed with the court Monday.

“The U.S. Attorney’s Office has received confirmation from ICE’s Office of the Legal Principal Advisor, San Antonio, that petitioner was released from ICE custody on August 30, 2025,” Craig M. Wolff, Acting U.S. Attorney for the District of Maine, wrote in a brief status update.

It wasn’t clear Tuesday what has happened to Bermeo Sicha since his release.

The 26-year-old was held in at least four different facilities over the course of a month, U.S. District Judge Stacey Neumann wrote in her order to release the man.

Bermeo Sicha had been working as a carpenter in Massachusetts when he was arrested in late July on his way to a job site in Maine with two co-workers, according to court records.

More than two weeks after his arrest, on Aug. 15, Border Patrol flew Bermeo Sicha and nine other people to Texas.

In a petition filed the day of his transfer, Bermeo Sicha’s attorneys argued that Border Patrol agents didn’t adequately explain why he was being detained or give him the opportunity to challenge that decision, in violation of his constitutional right to due process.
