Zhukovskyy, 26, a citizen of Ukraine, was taken into ICE custody at the Grafton County Department of Corrections facility in North Haverhill and was served a notice to appear.

“Zhukovskyy has an extensive criminal history including three prior convictions of charges that included Possession of Cocaine and Heroin, Possession of Drug Paraphernalia, Driving Under Suspension, Furnishing False Information to an Officer and Larceny,” John Mohan, public affairs officer and spokesperson for the New England Region of ICE, said.

He will remain in ICE custody until he appears before an immigration judge, officials said.

In order to hold Zhukovskyy, much like preventative detention in state courts, federal officials will have to demonstrate that Zhukovskyy is a threat to the community or a flight risk, according to Enrique Mesa, an attorney who specializes in immigration law.

Eventually, the feds will have to release him or make their case before an immigration judge, Mesa said.

Noting Zhukovskyy’s status, Mesa said he believes that it was unusual for the feds to get involved.

“I really don’t understand why he is being put in this predicament, especially with the fact that he is a permanent resident and I think that’s what’s a little bit alarming to me,” Mesa said.

Mesa said Zhukovskyy is likely being processed before being taken to Strafford County Jail, where federal detainees are held.

Mesa added that as a citizen of Ukraine, Zhukovskyy enjoys temporary protected status, so he cannot be deported.

Zhukovskyy has been in jail for the past three years as the case moved through the court system.

Massachusetts officials confirmed after the verdict was read that Zhukovskyy’s commercial driver’s license is disqualified, and his passenger license is suspended.

Zhukovskyy has an unresolved operating-under-the-influence case in Connecticut since May 11, 2019. The case is scheduled to be heard on Sept. 1 in Hartford, Conn.
