US EditionMigrants deported from US to Salvadoran prison remain under US control, Salvadoran officials tell UN
EL SALVADOR, JUL 7 – El Salvador acknowledges U.S. legal responsibility for over 100 Venezuelan migrants deported under a controversial wartime law despite their detention in a high-security Salvadoran prison.
- El Salvador confirmed to the United Nations that the U.S. government retains control over Venezuelan migrants deported to the CECOT prison in early 2025.
- This revelation contradicts prior statements by the Trump administration, which claimed no jurisdiction over these detainees, prompting a federal judge in Maryland to demand explanations.
- The situation relates to broader legal challenges against Trump-era immigration policies, including wrongful deportations like that of Cristian and Kilmar Abrego Garcia to El Salvador.
- The head of Democracy Forward criticized the administration for concealing information that deceives both the judiciary and the American public amid increasing legal challenges against these deportations.
- The case highlights complex issues in U.S. immigration enforcement and may affect ongoing legal battles over migrant rights and government accountability.
