Ismael Ayala-Uribe, 39, died after falling ill in a US immigration detention centre in California. He had lived in the US since he was four. His mother said he suffered from fever and cough but did not receive proper care. He was later taken to hospital for surgery but died before the operation. His family learned of his death only after police informed them. Ayala-Uribe had been detained for five weeks after an immigration raid. His death has raised concerns over poor medical care in detention centres. At least 15 people have died in US immigration custody this year. (PC: Sky News)
