 Perhaps for carrying a prohibited item onto a plane, which likely would have led to him being deported/removed or whatever the immigration term is.

The whole point of democracy and civil liberties is to make government actually have to be able to prove something before it orders them locked up forever for being evil. Price of each of us enoying that reassurance is that some bad guys will not be stopped from going their bad stuff at the earliest possible time.
