Listen to Federal Drive with Tom Temin’s interview with Ajay Bhatt.
In 2014 and 2015, Ajay Bhatt led Operation No Safe Haven, which led to the arrest of more than 70 human rights violators.
“This operation would not have happened without Ajay,” said Lisa Koven, director of the Human Rights Law Section at Immigration and Customs Enforcement. “Ajay got some really scary people off the street. Someone may be able to hide, but Operation No Safe Haven showed that we don’t give up on these cases, because we care about the victims.”
