In recent weeks, during a protest in Minnesota, federal immigration forces have begun to deploy body cameras as they initiate movement in Minneapolis, as reported by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.

The department announced this new measure, highlighting that federal immigration agent Alex Preti and Rene Good were involved in the apprehension of two American citizens last week, which has sparked protests against the government.

The actions taken by the federal forces, which resulted in the loss of life of the two individuals, were reported to have occurred after the apprehension of the immigrants in Minneapolis.

The Minister of Internal Security, Kirsty Nom, stated, "From now on, we will install body cameras on all police officers within the metropolis," as reported on their X page on Monday.

In the investigation conducted by the Hennepin County medical examiner, it has been confirmed that the death of the individual was a homicide, attributed to actions taken by federal forces.

This incident, referred to as a 'killing,' indicates that while it may suggest one person killing another, it can also be interpreted as a legitimate crime having been committed.

The results of the investigation released on Monday indicate that the death was caused by the police, either alone or in conjunction with other security forces involved in the incident, which has been described as involving "numerous excessive uses of force."
