Supreme Court to erroneous deportation: Trump government should act

In the dispute over the accidental deportation of a man from the US state of Maryland in a notorious prison in El Salvador, the US Supreme Court considers its release. The Supreme Court said that a federal judge had asked the government “properly” to “enable” the dismissal of the man from custody and “to” ensure that his case was treated as he would have been treated if he had not been illegally sent to El Salvador “.

However, the Supreme US Court of Justice did not set a deadline for the return of the man to the USA and also skeptically expressed a different passage of the decision on the lower authority. In this case, the Federal Supreme Court had also ordered that the government had to “bring about” the man’s return to the United States. The Supreme Court explained that it had to be clarified what exactly was meant by that. The court may have exceeded its powers. The case has not yet been finally decided with the decision of the Supreme Court.

It’s about Kilmar Abrego Garcia, who comes from El Salvador. The father belongs to a group of migrants who had recently been brought from the USA to the Salvadorian high -security prison Cecot – presumably despite a different order of a court in Washington.

According to US media, Garcia had entered the United States in 2012. His asylum application was rejected in 2019, but at that time he received abdominal protection due to impending persecution in El Salvador. On March 12 of this year, he was still arrested in Maryland and deported a few days later. In this case, the Trump government granted an “administrative mistake”-but states that Garcia was a member of the gang MS-13. Abrego Garcia denies that.

The Trump government supported the deportation on the “Alien Enemies Act”, a war law of 1798. The law was recently used to internage German and Japanese in the First and Second World War. Now the US President wants to act against a Venezuelan criminal cartel.

The federal judge in the state of Maryland originally set a deadline for the US government to bring the man back to the USA by Monday (local time). The government had turned to the Supreme Court to act against the arrangement with an urgent application. The Supreme Court initially gave the government a breath and let the deadline spread without consequences in order to take a closer look at the case.
