On the days of the federal government sent hundreds of Venezuelan immigrants to prison in Salvador in Washington, she debated whether the White House actually resisted a federal judge who ordered deportation flights to turn and return to the United States.
But for the obvious Animus for the judge and courtMore basic questions remain impartial and largely unanswered: were men who were excluded in Salvador, in fact all gang members, as the United States claim, and how did the authorities have made this determination of each of the about 200 people who were from the country, even as a federal judge, weighed their fate?
The White House Trump said most deported immigrants were members of Venezuelan Gang of AraguaWhich, like many multinational criminal organizations, has the presence in the United States. In the middle of record numbers of migrants coming on the southern border in recent years, gang Presence in some American cities became the rally of the cries for Donald J. Trump when he led the campaign for returning to the White House and claimed that immigrants were attack.
After Mr. Trump returned to power in January, Tren de Aragua remained for him and his immigration consultants with regular speaking and last week deportation flights were the most important step of the administration to fulfill his promise to go after the gang. However, the officials have little revealed how men were identified as gang members and what the proper process, if they existed, were assigned before the placement on flights in Salvador, where the authoritarian government associated with Mr. Trump agreed to hold prisoners in exchange for prisoners exchange. Payment for multimillion dollars.
The Ministry of Justice refused to answer basic questions about deportations from the federal judge in Washington, DC, who ordered a deportation flight to return to the United States. On Tuesday afternoon, he ordered the Ministry of Justice to submit a sealed service on Wednesday with the details of the time when the aircraft took off, left the American airy space and eventually landed in Salvador.
More than half of the immigrants deported on the weekend were removed by the unclear authority known as the Law on Extraterrestrial Enemy Acts of 1798, which Trump’s administration says that it is referred to the deportation of the suspect members of the Venezuelan gangs at the age of 14 and older with a small to any appropriate process. In the case of war or invasion, he rarely provoked the rarely -inducing law giving the President a broad authority to remove from the citizens of the United States, which he defines as “alien enemies”.
In a court document that filed on Monday evening after hearing, Robert L. Cern II, head of the clerk for immigration and recovery of customs enforcement, claimed that each individual was investigated and verified and that these efforts included supervision data, financial transaction reviews and interviews.
Mr. Cerna, however, raised a number of questions in which he said that the ICE database showed that some of those who were sent to Salvador under the Law on Extraterrestrial Laws were arrested in the United States and convicted “as dangerous crimes” and that others had convicted of the country.
But Mr. Cerna also acknowledged that “many” had no criminal records in US courts, although he said it did not mean that they “represent a limited threat”. Others have been said to have been in the nearby raid on the coercive authorities on vehicles and residences near the members of the Tren de Aragua when they were caught in Dragnet.
The growing choir of families, elected officials and immigration lawyers began to come in the intelligence media to refuse or question the accusation. Some lawyers – sent to a frantic search for their clients in detainment centers across the country – believe that their clients have been selected simply for their tattoos. Immigration lawyers in New York were able to stop deportation of at least one Venezuelan, whom they said they had no ties to the gang.
Lindsay Toczylowski, a lawyer with the legal center of the defenders of immigrants, said that her client was a young professional at the age of 30, who worked in the art industry and was in custody since he was looking for accession to the United States last year. She said that her client was suspicious because of his tattoos, but his lawyers did not receive the opportunity to face claims through court hearing.
She said she was transferred from California to Texas at the beginning of this month and disappeared from the online detained locator on Saturday.
“Our client is proof that they have not done DUE diligence to understand who they sent to Salvador,” she said, refusing to name the young man of fear of his security.
Some Democrats not only accused Trump’s administration of violation of the court order, but also asked who the administration sent to Salvador to be imprisoned.
“Trump’s administration deports immigrants without mentioning Senator Dick Durbin, Democrat of Illinois on Monday, solely on their nationality,” Senator Dick Durbin said on Monday. “The courts determine whether people violated the law.”
More than 260 people deported to Salvador at the weekend included 137 people removed through the Law on Extraterrestrial Hostome Laws. According to Trump’s administration officials, 101 Venezuelans were deported.
Lawyers said experts that even under war conditions, the detention is entitled to a proper process.
“The Law on Extraterrestrial Law explicitly lays down” complete examination and hearing “before they can be removed by the status,” said Stephen Vladeck, Professor of Law in Georgetown University’s legal center. “Even in the middle of World War II, federal courts would organize hearing to determine whether aliens were actually citizens of the countries we were with in the war.”
Venezuela’s government forcibly condemned the transfer of Venezuelans to Salvador and the use of war authority by Trump administration. In a Sunday statement, the government of Nicolás Maduro condemned what he called the “threat of kidnapping” of minors at the age of 14 by calling them terrorists, and claimed that they were “considered to be a criminal simply for being Venezuelan”.
Mariyin Arauujo, 32, said that the father of her two daughters, 2 and 6, fled from Venezuela after attending two demonstrations against the authoritarian government of Mr. Madur. On the second occasion, he and other protesters were captured and tortured, with electric shocks and suffocation. He registered through an application for CBP One in Mexico and was detained in San Diego, when he introduced himself for his appointment, Mrs. Araujo said.
He was a professional football player and coach and had a tattoo on the football ball. Mrs. Arauujo said that immigration officials had linked the crown to the Venezuelan gang and submitted documents that show that her former husband had no criminal history, along with photographs and letters from their employer to show that he was a citizen compliance. Before his case was determined, he called to tell her that they would move him to the detention center in Texas.
She did not know his place of stay until she knew him in the social media photo, she said. He sat on the floor with his head, bent in white prison uniform with others detained in Salvador. She tried to reach out to prison officials there, but since then she learned that the facility where he is held is renowned for not allowing telephone calls or family visits.
“There was something in me that lasted hope that it wouldn’t be him, but it was him,” she said. “He’s not a criminal.”
