Kilmar Abrego Garcia taken into ICE custody in Baltimore, faces possible deportation to Uganda

Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a Salvadoran citizen, was taken into custody by ICE Monday morning after he appeared at the Baltimore office to complete a routine check-in.
His detention came after his release from custody in Tennessee on Friday and his rejection of an offer to plead guilty to human smuggling charges in exchange for removal to Costa Rica.
Abrego Garcia faces possible deportation to Uganda, a move his attorneys say is retaliatory and dangerous, while advocacy groups and politicians have condemned the threat.
According to official statements, Abrego Garcia is considered a clear threat and faces the choice of pleading guilty or proceeding to trial.
The case is intensifying legal battles over deportation procedures and may affect protections requiring 72 hours' notice before removal to a third country like Uganda.
