Help needed for a Nepali in TX detention center

I heard from a family of a young nepali man who is in Texas Detention center. It looks like he was caught by US -Mexico border patrol when this guy was trying to sneak in from Mexico. He was studying in Singapore before that and paid couple of thousands dollar to the agent who took him to Mexico. No-one knows what happened next. I don't have full details and what happens now and wondering if anyone would like to share their knowledge and help his poor family.

1.  Do you know any lawyers/Human rights group/Non-profit organization in San-Antonia area who works      in      cases like this?
2. Does our embassy in DC help in case like this?



It looks like they release detainees on bond if he gets court dates or legal representations.
The address of the detention center is:
SOUTH TEXAS DETENTION COMPLEX
566 Veterans Drive
Pearsall, Texas  78061
United States
Phone: 830-334-2939
Fax: 830-334-9192

Details about the facilities and legal opportunities can be found here:

Thank you all for your help.
