NEW: A 45-year-old Venezuelan man in ICE custody died in Georgia on Monday after being denied his medication, his sister and advocacy groups said.
Jesús Manuel Arenas-Silva was the fourth person to die in an ICE-related incident this week.
ICE officials confirmed the death of Arenas-Silva, who was arrested last Thursday. During his arrest, his family said they pleaded with officials to allow him to take his medications. They allowed him only one. Then Arenas-Silva called his sister to tell her ICE didn't give him his medication.
"He went without medication during his detention until he tragically died in ICE custody on Monday,” advocates said.
