The Hanover Police Department in Illinois announced Tuesday that it has reinstated Radule Bojovic, an illegal immigrant from Montenegro, as an officer after his release from ICE custody in October. He returned to work on Monday and will receive back pay for the time he missed while detained.
He had overstayed a B2 tourist visa, which required him to leave the United States by March 31, 2015.
An immigration judge granted a $2,500 immigration bond only two weeks after he was detained.
“Given that his bond was not contested and he remains authorized to work by the federal government, the Hanover Police Department determined that he may return to work,” the department said. “His first shift back since his detention took place yesterday. The Village and Hanover Park will provide Officer Bojovic back pay for the time he was on leave.”

Bojovic was initially hired in January because he had a federal work permit and passed all background checks, the department claimed. He was eligible to receive a starting salary of $78,955.70 at the time of his hiring, according to the Department of Homeland Security. His 2025 earnings totaled $205,707 on the taxpayers’ dime.
Editor’s Note: Thanks to President Trump, illegal immigration into our great country has virtually stopped. Despite the radical left’s lies, new legislation wasn’t needed to secure our border, just a new president.
