Kilmar Abrego Garcia in American custody, while lawyers are fighting in Uganda

Kilmar Abrego, the migrant whose unjustified expulsion to his native Salvador made it a symbol of the hard immigration policies of President Donald Trump, was again detained by American immigration officials in Baltimore on Monday and could be expelled a second time, perhaps in Uganda.

The push of the Trump administration to expel Abrego, 30, in an African country where he has no links is the last touch of a saga that started in March, when the American authorities sent him to Salvador. Abrego was brought back in June to cope with criminal charges for transporting migrants illegally living in the United States and was released on Friday.

He pleaded not guilty and his lawyers accused the administration of vindictive proceedings.

Abrego was arrested in an immigration and customs office office (ICE) in downtown Baltimore, where he reported an interview on Monday morning. His lawyers quickly asked Greenbelt, the American district judge of Greenbelt, the MD, Paula Xinis to prevent him from being expelled without the regular procedure required under the American Constitution.

An audience in the case is scheduled for Monday afternoon.

The American Secretary for Internal Security, Kristi Noem, confirmed the arrest and declared that the ice treated Abrego for the expulsion in Uganda.

Pull the strength of his family

Abrego was accompanied at the Ice field office by his American citizen wife, Jennifer Vasquez, and his brother Cesar.

“When I was detained, I always remembered beautiful moments with my family, like going to the park or going to the trampoline with my children,” he said through a translator while choking. “These moments will give me strength and hope to continue fighting.”

ABREGO lawyers have said that processing by the administration of the case indicates the pressure from the Republican President to extend the executive power in terms of immigration to the detriment of the regular procedure. Administration officials said Trump’s electoral victory last year had given him the mandate to considerably expel deportations.

According to legal files, the administration had proposed to deport him to Costa Rica – a Spanish -speaking country in Central America, like El Salvador – if he agreed to change his guilt advocacy, but plans to deport him to Uganda if he does not do so.

“They hold Costa Rica as a carrot and use Uganda as a stick,” said his lawyer Simon Sandoval-Moshenberg. “They armament the immigration system in a way that is completely unconstitutional.”

Abrego, a sheet that entered the United States without authorization, lived in Maryland with his wife, child and two of his children when he was arrested and sent to Salvador.

Returned to us, then quickly loaded

He was expelled earlier this year despite a decision by the 2019 US Immigration Court that he was not returned to his native country due to a risk of persecution by gangs. Abrego was not only returned to Salvador, but at the country’s country confinement center in the country of the country, although it was never charged for a crime in the United States until that time.

The US government for months has taken no apparent measures to bring ABREGO of Salvador despite the recognition of an official from the Ministry of Justice according to which his deportation was an “administrative error” and that the ordinance of a judge, subsequently affirmed by the Supreme Court of the United States, to facilitate his return.

Abrego was finally transported by plane of El Salvador in June, while the Federal Prosecutors of Nashville had carried out his indictment in the previous weeks.

These accusations arise from a vehicle stop in 2022 in which the Tennessee road patrol suspected him in the trafficking of human beings. Abrego Garcia was not accused of a crime at the time, and the police did not allow him to drive with only a warning concerning an expired driver’s license, according to a report by the Ministry of Internal Security. The report indicates that he was traveling from Texas to Maryland, via Missouri, to bring people to carry out construction work.

Until recently, the United States has generally followed international law to prevent refugee, when refugees or asylum seekers have returned to countries where it could face a danger.

Abrego is covered by a permanent prescription in Maryland, preventing immigrants from relaxing that their deportations are immediately expelled, have shown legal files.

Xinis had previously ruled that the authorities cannot expel Abrego to a country other than El Salvador without giving his lawyers of 72 hours so that he can contest his dismissal.
