29 -year -old Kilmar Obrgo Garcia, based in El Salvador, who was incorrectly deported in March, has been returned to the US to prosecute two federal criminal charges.
He has been accused of involvement in smuggling conspiracy for several years to evacuate undocumented immigrants from Texas to other parts of the country.
Attorney General Palm Bondi said on Friday that US Salvador agreed to release Mr. Ebrego Garcia after a arrest warrant. His lawyers have called the allegations a “preliminary”.
The White House has been opposed by the US Supreme Court since April to “return” to “return” them after being sent to El Salvador’s jail with more than 250 deportation.
In a two-county Grand Jury indictment filed at Tennessee Court last month, a countdown to Mr. Ebrego Garcia was charged with a second count for transporting foreigners and unlawful foreigners.
Grand referees found that Mr. Abrego Garcia played a “significant role” in the alien trafficking ring – brought thousands of illegal immigrants to the US.
The previous allegations of 2016 have been accused of transporting undocumented persons more than 100 times between Texas and Maryland and other states.
The indictment additionally alleged that he had transported members of MS -13, designated by the US by the US.
The Trump administration had previously accused Mr. Ebrego Garcia of being a member of the domestic Salvador gang, which he denied.
Bondi alleged that Mr. Ebrego Garcia was smuggling arms and drugs for the US for the gang, although no related crimes were charged.
He appeared in court at an early hearing on Friday in Tennessee Nashville. The Arrangement hearing is scheduled for June 13, where US Magistrate Judge Barbara Holmes will decide whether to be arrested before the hearing.
Currently, Mr. Abrego Garcia is in federal custody.
Mr. Ebrego Garcia’s lawyer has earlier argued that no criminal offense, including a gang membership in the US or El Salvador, was never convicted.
One of his lawyers, Simon Sandoval Moshenberg, called the “preliminary” and events “abuse of power” at a news conference on Friday.
“The government disappeared to Kilmar in violation of a court order,” said Mr. Moshenberg. “Now, after months of delays and privacy, they are bringing him back, not to correct his error but to interrogate him.”
He said: “This is not the abuse of power, not fair. The government should give them a full and fair inquiry before the same immigration judge who heard the case in 2019.”
Speaking to reporters on Friday, President Donald Trump called Mr. Abrego Garcia a “bad guy” and said the Justice Department made the right decision to return us to the soil to face the trial.
Mr. Abrego Garcia entered the US illegally as a teenager from El Salvador. In 2019, he was arrested with three others in Maryland and was arrested by Federal Immigration Officers.
But the immigration judge protected from deportation for the reason that the risk of harassment by local gangs in their home country
On March 15, he was deported amidst the migration of the Trump administration, after inviting Trump Alien enemiesThe war-time law allows the president of the enemy to arrest or deport the enemy country locals and civilians.
Mr. Abrego Garcia was taken to the notorious mega-jail sicot of El Salvador, known for its cruel conditions.
If government lawyers initially stated that they were taken there as a result of the “administrative error,” the Trump administration refused to order its return.
Whether or not the government should return to its home in Maryland in the US state, it became a matter of weeks of legal and political war.
Maryland Senator Chris Van Holen was released to a different jail in the country after he was forced to see Mr. Abrego Garcia at El Salvador.
On Friday, Van Holen reiterated “It’s not about man. It is about their constitutional rights – and about everyone’s rights.”
“The administration now has to make his case in court because it must have everything.”
Trump’s close ally El Salvadoran president Naib Bukel said on social media on Friday, saying, “If the administration requests to return to the allegations of gang members, we will not be denied.”
According to the arrest motion, Mr. Ebrego Garcia is expected to attend the Tennessee Court on Friday, where we request to be in the preliminary custody “because they are at risk to the community and pose a serious risk of flight.”
