US EditionKilmar Abrego Garcia notified by ICE that he may be deported to Uganda
- On August 23, 2025, U.S. authorities informed Kilmar Abrego Garcia that they intend to remove him from the country to Uganda and directed him to check in at ICE's Baltimore office.
- This development follows Abrego Garcia's mistaken deportation to El Salvador in March 2025 despite a 2019 immigration judge's order shielding him due to persecution fears.
- Abrego Garcia, an undocumented Salvadoran who denies gang ties, was returned to U.S. custody, charged with human smuggling, and recently released from a Tennessee jail en route to Maryland.
- A court filing on Saturday contended that the attempt to send him back to Uganda exemplifies prosecutorial retaliation, while his attorneys maintain that no evidence linking him to gang activity has been provided by the government.
- The potential deportation to Uganda, a third country with a recent U.S. deportation agreement, suggests continued legal and immigration challenges for Abrego Garcia amid evolving enforcement policies.
