Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy has cracked down on the employer, school, and certifier of an illegal immigrant who killed four people in an Indiana crash.
The Trump administration has shifted its attention to cracking down on poor standards that allowed illegal immigrants to become a significant part of the trucking industry in the U.S. In a Friday post on X, Duffy outlined the Department of Transportation’s response to a recent crash featuring an illegal Kyrgyz immigrant, who killed four Amish people in a van with his truck.
Duffy announced that the trucker’s employer, AJ Partners; two “SHADY” carriers connected to AJ Partners, Tutash Express and Sam Express; and the “Sham school” Aydana that had certified and helped him get a license, had all been shut down or had their certification revoked.

“This crackdown is JUST GETTING STARTED. We will not rest until every bad actor is held ACCOUNTABLE,” he said, thanking the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration for their “quick work.”
Bekzhan Beishekeev, a 30-year-old national of Kyrgyzstan, came to the U.S. during the Biden administration, after which he obtained a commercial driver’s license to become a truck driver through the aforementioned entities.
On Feb. 3, he failed to brake after a semi-truck slowed down in front of him, causing him to swerve into the opposite lane, where he collided with a van carrying up to 15 passengers, four of whom were killed.
Immigration and Customs Enforcement quickly took him into custody after his illegal background was discovered, and help up the incident as a consequence of Biden’s immigration policies.

“Not only was Bekzhan Beishekeev released into our country by the Biden administration using the CBP One app, but he was also given a commercial driver’s license by Governor Shapiro’s Pennsylvania. These decisions have had deadly consequences and led to the death of four innocent people in Indiana on Tuesday,” Department of Homeland Security Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin said in a statement.
“It is incredibly dangerous for illegal aliens, who often don’t know our traffic laws or even English, to be operating semi-trucks on America’s roads. These sanctuary governors must stop giving illegal aliens commercial driver’s licenses before another American gets killed,” she added.
