Argenis Miquilena-Lugo/Venezuela/Sexual Assault Warrant

Argenis Miquilena-Lugo, age 37, a citizen of Venezuela, was arrested by ICE Denver and transferred to federal custody for immigration processing. Officials documented the apprehension in the Denver field area and noted that he will remain detained pending immigration proceedings. Intake steps are underway to determine custody status and to schedule appearances on the immigration docket.

Case materials reviewed at the time of arrest identify an active felony warrant for sexual assault. The warrant was issued by criminal authorities and remains outstanding, reflecting allegations that will be addressed in the charging jurisdiction. No additional convictions or new charges were listed in the notice accompanying this arrest, and the announcement did not provide further details about the underlying incident beyond the warrant’s existence.

Following apprehension, standard procedures include custody review, docketing of an initial appearance, and subsequent hearing notices. Any criminal proceedings related to the felony warrant will continue separately in the appropriate court, independent of the immigration case. Further updates—if any—will appear in public court dockets or agency records as filings occur and as the court addresses scheduling and detention determinations.
