Migrants Deported From US to South Sudan Held in Djibouti

  • The United States deported eight migrants with violent crime convictions on May 20, who are now held in Djibouti after being flown toward South Sudan.
  • The migrants were sent without approval from their home countries, and the deportation to the conflict-torn South Sudan raised legal challenges about insufficient notice to appeal.
  • U.S. District Judge Brian Murphy ruled on May 21 in Boston that the migrants must have at least ten days to contest their expulsions and that six could claim fear of torture with legal aid.
  • Among the deportees are men from Myanmar, Cuba, Vietnam, Laos, Mexico, and South Sudan, including a Laotian man convicted of murder and released following a Supreme Court ruling.
  • The ruling halted the migrants' transfer to South Sudan, leaving them detained in Djibouti amid criticism from the Trump administration, which called the court 'absolutely out of control.
