MEMORANDUM

CALDWELL, District Judge.

I. Introduction.

Hilario Gerardo Cuesta Martinez, a de-portable alien, has filed a pro se petition for a writ of habeas corpus under 28 U.S.C. § 2241. The petitioner contends that his prolonged detention in INS custody awaiting deportation while the INS finds a country that will accept him vio- ' lates his right to procedural and substantive due process under the fifth amendment.

We are considering the report of the magistrate judge, dated January 6, 2000. The report recommends that the petition be denied. The petitioner has filed objections to the report.
